Co-directed by Mark Zibert (Sons and Daughters) and Gary Thomas (Crush), “Legendary Biru” is beautifully detailed two-minute film. Shot on location over a month in Guangzhou, China, it is a linear journey though Japan’s rich cultural heritage that reveals the brewing process behind Sapporo beer.
This film follows the success of Crush’s collaboration with Marco Brambilla on his Civilization piece for the Standard Hotel in NYC.
