Noriaki Tsuchimoto (土本典昭, Tsuchimoto Noriaki) (11 December 1928, Gifu Prefecture, Japan - 24 June 2008) was a Japanese documentary film director. Along with Shinsuke Ogawa, Tsuchimoto was the most influential independent documentary filmmaker in postwar Japan. He began his career at Iwanami Productions (Iwanami Eiga) making PR (public relations) films alongside other important directors such as Ogawa, Kazuo Kuroki, and Susumu Hani. Turning independent, he made documentaries about the student movement while beginning his most famous work, a series of documentaries about the mercury poisoning incident in Minamata, Japan.
