    Abstract

    This chapter examines the work of Haneda Sumiko (1926-) one of the pioneering and most prolific documentary filmmakers in post-war Japan. Haneda´s filmmaking career started in the 1950s when she joined Iwanami Productions to make educational films and PR documentaries. She directed her first film in Iwanami in 1957, went freelance in the 1980s and have been making documentaries until recent years. The chapter explores Haneda´s early career, her authorship as woman filmmaker, and the discourses surrounding the reception of her films in recent years.
