Art Theatre Guild (ATG) was a film production company in Japan that started in 1961 and ran through to the mid-1980s, releasing mostly Japanese New Wave films. ATG began as an independent agency which distributed foreign films in Japan. With the decline of the major Japanese film studios in the 1960s, an "art house" cinema group formed around ATG and the company moved into distributing Japanese works rejected by the major studios. By 1967 ATG was assisting with production costs for a number of new Japanese films. (Wikipedia)

Associated filmmakers: Susumu Hani, Akio Jissoji, Kazuo Kuroki, Toshio Matsumoto, Nagisa Oshima, Masahiro Shinoda, Shuji Terayama
