Free Japanese film screenings at TriNoma
THERE will be free screenings of Japanese films at the TriNoma mall in Quezon City from Sept. 7 to 10. This event coincides with the 2nd ASEAN–Japan TV Festival 2017 (AJTVF2) commemorating the 50th Anniversary of ASEAN.
The free screenings come courtesy of the Japan Foundation, Manila and The Embassy of Japan in the Philippines.
The new Japanese films to be shown are: The Projects (Danchi), The Mohican Comes Home (Mohican Kokyo ni Kaeru), Key of Life (Kagidorobo no Method), and LA LA LA at Rock Bottom (Misono Universe).
The lineup also includes Asian Three-Fold Mirror 2016: Reflections, which was screened at the Tokyo International Film Festival. To create the omnibus film Reflections, the Japan Foundation Asia Center worked with three Asian directors: Brillante Ma Mendoza of the Philippines, Sotho Kulikar of Cambodia, and Isao Yukisada of Japan.
The films will be shown at Cinema 5, TriNoma Mall, Quezon City. All screenings are free and seats are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
The festival will culminate in a public event at the TriNoma Mall Activity Center on Sept. 9, 2:45 p.m. to 5:30 pm, with a performance by Airdance Philippines (with Rhosam Prudenciado, Jr. of the Japan Foundation Asia Center event Dance Dance Asia 2017). This will be followed by a mini-concert with Rivermaya, Julie Anne San Jose, and Erik Santos, together with Japan’s Soil & Pimp Sessions and Pink Cres. Admission is free.
