JETRO Event
The 3rd Annual Show Biz Japan! Sneak Peek
-Film Screenings from Next-Generation Japanese Filmmakers-
JETRO will sponsor our third annual “Show Biz Japan! Sneak Peek ~ Film Screenings of Next-Generation Japanese Filmmakers~”, to spotlight new Japanese directors entering the American market.
Recently, Hollywood has been remaking numerous Japanese films in various genres, and creating original movies based on Japanese culture and history. We are beginning to see a pattern of increased attention given to Japanese content, actors, and co-produced films between U.S. and Japanese studios, with Japanese crews being employed.
To give these talented newcomers a chance to prove their worth, “Show Biz Japan! Sneak Peek” was created two years ago. Industry professionals judge and choose the best films with the most potential of success in the U.S. market. Our third event showcases 7 works called from a total of 31 feature and short films, which were submitted. Take advantage of this once a year opportunity to find your Miike, Kitano or Miyazaki.

AFI FEST 2007 Presented by Audi
NOVEMBER 1 - 11, ArcLight Hollywood
AFI FEST 2007 is proud to invite you to the following screenings as part of the 2007 Film Festival:
SAKURAN
DIR: Mika Ninagawa
Japan
CAST: Anna Tsuchiya, Kippei Shiina, Hiroki Narimiya, Yoshino Kimura, Miho Kanno, Masatoshi Nagase, Minami, Hiroshi Yamamoto, Kenichi Endo, Ayame Koike, Megumi Yamaguchi
Based on the popular manga of the same name, this film details the education and early career of a popular geisha, or courtesan. Passions and goals collide for girls who seek to become the oiran, the highest-ranking prostitute who only the wealthiest and most powerful could hope to patronize. This lush and opulent vision of a lost world is a one-of-a-kind cinematic export from first-time director Mika Ninagawa.
Thu. Nov 8, 10:30 pm / Sat. Nov 10, 12:45 pm
FUNUKE, SHOW SOME LOVE YOU LOSERS!
(FUNUKEDOMO, KANASHIMI NO AI WO MISERO)
DIR: Daihachi Yoshida
Japan
CAST: Eriko Sato, Aimi Satsukawa, Hiromi Nagasaku, Masatoshi Nagase
After their parents die in hilariously gory fashion, the three Funuke siblings are reunited to mondo effect, reigniting rivalries that have lain dormant since their childhood. Juxtaposing an innocuous rural setting with manga-fueled mania, director Daihachi Yoshida delivers a debut film that promises a seemingly limitless career. The ensemble cast shines as the utterly unhinged family, especially Hiromi Nagasaku's brilliant portrayal of a fanatically “calm” housewife hellbent on keeping her family together.
Mon. Nov 5, 9:00 pm / Wed. Nov 7, 4:30 pm
AFI FEST is proud to present one of the world's most anticipated showcases of international film, as part of the longest-running film festival in Los Angeles. We are honored to be working with your host organization to present this wonderful program of ground-breaking cinema.
