INFO
SYNOPSIS
Founded in Tokyo in the aftermath of WWII, Naito Auto Engineering is a three-generation family business, renown for restoring high-value classic cars with artistry and precision.
Masao Naito, with his bold vision and rebellious spirit, took his father's local mechanic shop and turned it into a first-class company, whose services are coveted by top auto collectors the world over. For over 40 years, Masao has ruled the family business with an iron fist. Now, with his retirement on the horizon, cracks are beginning to show. Do the younger Naitos have what it takes to keep the family together, and carry the business forward?
Filmmaker Ben Bertucci shows a fly-on-the-wall view of the inner workings of a notoriously secretive family and business. Never before seen footage of hands-on, artisanal restoration techniques passed down from Shinichi Naito, a self-taught “genius” mechanic who worked on Japanese bomber-planes during WWII.
