\nWith appearance of the featured “Zero Yen” architecet Kyohei Sakaguchi<\/a> himself, the documentary film How to Build a Mobile House<\/em> makes its U.S. Premiere in his favorite city, San Francisco! Screening attendees will also be invited to his free workshop to build a Mobile Green House with him during the J-POP Summit Festival. Sakaguchi’s numerous books include Tokyo Zero Yen House, Zero Yen Life<\/em>, inspired by the exuberant creativity of street dwellers. This documentary delves into the roots of dwelling, and living, through the unique activities of this architect who “does not build.” Sakaguchi, who devised a nest-like abode that fits the size of the human body, apprentices himself to the Tama River Robinson Crusoe who actually lives on a riverbed. The film depicts the completion of a mobile house with wheels for just 26,000 yen in materials.
