TOSHIAKI TOYODA GETS SUSPENDED SENTENCE

Toshiaki Toyoda, the director of NINE SOULS and the new HANGING GARDEN (now at AFM), appeared in court on Oct. 20 and received 3 years probation after being arrested with drugs when his house was raided back in August. This is good news for Toyoda who can keep on making films (although someone over on Twitch seems to think that he's having other problems that might make this unlikely for a bit) and I guess it's why HANGING GARDEN has been released from movie jail and is at AFM and enjoying a small Japanese release.
