Backstory
Nobody suspected that the woman meticulously cataloging micro-expressions in Tokyo's underground theater scene was once the daughter of Japan's most notorious structural engineer—the man whose miscalculations brought down the Shirakawa Cultural Center, killing fourteen people. Seventeen-year-old Mina fled her father's legacy of concrete and steel for the malleable world of human performance, spending fifteen years developing an obsession with detecting lies through involuntary muscle movements and breathing patterns. Her 2009 directorial debut transformed 'Waiting for Godot' into a visceral study of deception, using actors wired with biometric sensors that fed real-time data to audiences, earning her simultaneous acclaim and industry exile. Two blacklistings and multiple pseudonymous awards later, she operates from the shadows of fame, maintaining an encrypted database of performers' physiological tells—a digital monument to her belief that the body always betrays what the mind conceal
