The Directors Guild of Japan New Directors Award (日本æ˜
ç"»ç›£ç £å "会新人賞, Nihon Eiga Kantoku KyÅ kai ShinjinshÅ ) is
given annually by the Directors Guild of Japan to a new director of a
film released that year who is considered the most "suitable" for the
award. The winner is selected by a committee formed of DGJ members.
All formatsâ€"feature film, documentary, television, video, etc.â€"are
eligible for consideration. In some years when there was no apparent
winner, the Guild only issued a "citation" (奨励賞(shŠreishŠ)) or
did not give out the award. Multiple awards have been given in other
years. With a long history, many of Japan's major postwar directors
have received the award, including Nagisa ÅŒshima, Susumu Hani,
Yoshimitsu Morita, Masayuki Suo, Takeshi Kitano, and Shunji
Iwai.Recipients of the Directors Guild of Japan New Directors Award
