The world of cinema doesn't know too many female directors, effectively resulting in a lack a quality dramas based around female characters. It's even rarer to find male directors working in this field, exactly the reason why Hiroki should be considered a treasure of Japanese cinema. He's also quite prolific so keeping up with all his films is quite a challenge. If you're looking to get acquainted with his work, Girlfriend is a pretty good starting point.
Ryuichi Hiroki had to work quite hard to get where he is today. Like many others he started in Japanese pink cinema and fought his way up from there. These influences are still found in his current work, though most of the sexuality and nudity is not particularly erotic and feels very natural. His films are often carried by female characters, granting his audience a little peek in their little (sometimes somewhat peculiar) universes.
