FROM POPTOPIC:Johnny Deep welcomed by thousands of cheering fans at KVIFF 2021
By Dianne Anders
Johnny Depp met by thousands of cheering fans as he touches down in the Czech Republic ahead of Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.
The Pirates of The Caribbean actor has landed in Czech Republic to show his biopic about the American photographer, W. Eugene Smith, Minimata, at KVIFF 2021. Fans, both at Karlovy Vary and around the world, unite to show the celebrated Hollywood actor the love and support he deserves.
Directed by Andrew Levitas, Minimata is a film starring Johnny Depp as W Eugene Smith; an American photography who is renowned for his photographic essays published in Life Magazine.
The movie also stars Japanese model Minami, who plays Aileen, a passionate Japanese translator, encourages Smith to travel to Minamata and take photos of the illness there. Smith has finally made the decision to focus on bringing to light the horrendous impacts of corporate greed, which is working with the local police and government.
To show the impact of mercury poisoning and Minamata sickness on Japanese coastlines, he travels to Minamata in Japan. The illness is directly related to the chemical plant Chisso, which created pollution due to its business operations.
With just his Minolta camera and a hard fight ahead, Smith will have to fight against a big company and must first build the community’s trust to have any chance of telling this tale to the world. Smith falls subject to serious retribution while he is there. It is thus essential that he is brought back to the United States at once. But this report will transform him into a photographic icon.
