Tokyo Ride, the latest film from creators Bêka & Lemoine revisits the genre of the rod movie in a uniquely personal way, taking the viewer aboard Pritzker Prize winner Ryūe Nishizawa's vintage Alfa Romeo for a day-long journey through the streets of Tokyo. Throughout the film, the duo pose questions on how rooted architecture practice is and how much the built and cultural environment feeds and shapes our imagination.

The film was awarded the Artistic Vision Award at DocAviv 2020, an Oscar-qualifying documentary-only festival. "The directors do not pretend to encompass the entire oeuvre of Ryūe Nishizawa, but something in the intimacy of the car ride (the car being the undeniable film's supporting actor), creates exceptional conditions to getting to know his personality and his world," said the jurors in a statement.

The film is due to premier in many major architecture film festivals both in Europe and North America, with screenings at the next CAFx in Copenhagen, AFFR in Rotterdam, MDFF in Milan, and ADFF in New York, among other cities.
