Hideo Nakata, who created a Japanese horror boom with "The Ring" and then went to Hollywood to make his own remake, "The Ring 2," faced many questions and obstacles in the process from its production to its release. The long days leading up to the start of shooting, the astonishing filming methods, the repeated monitor previews... What does it mean to make a movie in Hollywood, the home of the giant movie industry? What are the difficulties for a foreigner to make a film in Hollywood? Hideo Nakata interviewed various staff members, including Walter Parks, former DreamWorks' chief production officer and producer, and Hans Zimmer, a film musician from Germany, and wrote their testimonies in this valuable documentary. A booklet containing behind-the-scenes stories about the film's production is also included.
