During a Q&A held after the screening of Invisibles, it was almost exclusively men who volunteered their questions, notably asking Louis-Julien Petit if it wasn't too difficult for him to direct women. At the autograph session that followed, a number of women came up to speak to the director, including one woman who had experienced life on the street, who told him:
"When you are a poor woman in Japan, there are two battles you must fight at the same time: that of being a woman and that of struggling with precarious living conditions."
There is no word in Japanese for "homeless," it is the English word that is used.
