"The Other Side" covers an editor, Kai Tokuhara’s (based in Tokyo) personal football journeys to various European cities, featuring spilling out emotions and euphoria of sadness, joy, passion and hustle and bustle in a candid 35mm photo reportage alongside with his take on the culture and people around one of the biggest sport.
"Once you step into the stadium, all the language barriers disappear and it is strange that you can communicate with the person next to you. Then walk through their cities and you explore their culture and you get inspired and excited. I feel that I learnt the real meaning of traveling through football, that “something” special exists still in this day and age. That is why I continue this journey, with football."
SOPH.にも長く携わっている編集者・徳原海が長年にわたる欧州各国への“サッカー旅”の記録を一冊にまとめたフォトルポルタージュ作品『The Other Side』。
歓喜、悲哀、情熱、喧騒……様々な人間模様が入り混じる欧州のサッカースタジアム。
その奥深さに魅せられた著者が、18都市を旅しながら各地のスタジアムの情景やそこに集う人々の様子を35mmフイルムカメラで切り取りながら、“違う角度”から見たサッカーの魅力をライブ感のある写真と飾りのない文で綴っています。
全256ページにびっしりと埋め尽くされた写真を見ているうちに、地響きのような声が聞こえてあたかも自分がその場所に立っているような体験ができる濃密な作品集です。
