New Frontier of Japanese Filmmakers

While major film companies in Japan retreat to safe themes and a conservative business model, many filmmakers on the periphery of the film industry are trying to explore new expression and new ideas. This program will focus on these edgy filmmakers to introduce them to the wider world.
