Whatever happened to "Finding Midoriyama"?

I know this is an obscure topic, but whatever happened to "Finding Midoriyama" documentary?
I remember it was announce back in 2015, that was supposed to be completed by end of 2016 and release it on following year, 2017.
From what I gather it supposed to cover history (30 tournaments) of SASUKE, where it would comprise interviews with competitors and crews.
The last update was December 2016, mentioning about bringing Nagano to USA, and nothing since then.
I guess they didn't have enough funds or had technical issues.

At least we are getting official book in December (2023), despite only Japanese.

They recorded a lot of interviews but the process dealing with TBS was.. frustrating. Similar to me they lost interest. The interviewees were awesome (like the all stars) but the rest not so much.

I'm curious how much was it finished.
Since the last update mentioned planning on doing Nagano's interview, I guess they were pretty close for following year release.
I'm also wondering if we ever get to see those interviews in any forms, if they are kept somewhere.

They had a Facebook account. Maybe try contacting them.
