5 Toronto Japanese Film Festival 2014 – Our Biggest And Best So Far!

June 27 saw the close of the most successful Toronto Japanese Film Festival at the JCCC so far. Ticket revenues increased by 50 percent and audiences were unanimous in their praise of the quality of the line-up. Visiting director Yoshihiro Nakamura called it the best international festival he had ever participated in. It was a great 2 weeks!

Azuma Morisaki’s PECOROSS’ MOTHER AND HER DAYS won the Grand Jury Prize for Best Film and Grand Jury Prizes were also awarded to Yoshihiro Nakamura’s THE SNOW WHITE MURDER CASE and Takashi Miike’s THE MOLE SONG – UNDERCOVER AGENT REIJI. Takashi Yamazaki’s THE ETERNAL ZERO received the festival’s Kobayashi Audience Choice Award.

The announcements were made at the closing reception of the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre’s 3rd annual Toronto Japanese Film Festival following the sold-out North American premiere Yoshihiro Nakamura’s THE SNOW WHITE MURDER CASE. Director Nakamura was in attendance to introduce the film and collect his award.

The Grand Prize Jury included director Daihachi Yoshida, winner of last year’s Japan Academy Award for Best Film and Best Director for THE KIRISHIMA THING, Japan Times film critic Mark Schilling and leading members of Toronto’s film community.

The 2014 festival featured 18 films including North American and/or Canadian premieres of Yoji Yamada’s THE LITTLE HOUSE, Yasuo Furuhata’s A BOY CALLED H, Kentaro Otani’s BLACK BUTLER, Yuzo Asahara’s A TALE OF SAMURAI COOKING, Shin Togashi’s OSHIN and Daisuke Miura’s LOVE’S WHIRLPOOL.

The JCCC would like to thanks our presenting sponsor Shiseido Canada and also major sponsors Japanese Foundation, RBC Foundation, Hitachi Canada, SONY Canada, Subaru Canada, Entertainment One Films and a wide number of community and cultural organizations. In particular we thanks the great volunteers who are so central to the festival and everything we do here at the JCCC.

6 Another Successful Nostalgia Night Celebration

On July 6, 2014 more than 275 guests and volunteers gathered together for the 11th annual Nostalgia Night Celebration honouring five of the longest standing Japanese Cultural Arts groups who have served our Japanese Canadian Community and the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre. The five honourees, Bunka Shishu, Ikenobo Ikebana Society of Toronto, Sogetsu Ikebana Toronto East Branch, Shodo - Japanese Calligraphy, and Sumi-e, more than exemplify the spirit of the Heritage Pioneer Award. This award has been given annually to those whose work has contributed towards the cultural and social development and well-being of our community over the years. Each of these group’s classes have brought many people from within and beyond our community together in the pursuit of these specialized arts. They have helped raise the understanding and appreciation of these arts, developed the skills of many students, and helped to develop friendships and connections that have added to the strength of our community. We are also most fortunate that they host annual exhibits featuring juried work with some of the groups bringing in work from across the country. Guests had an opportunity to view displays of each of these groups, talking with the instructors and students, and finding out information about their classes. They observed volunteers from the Heritage Committee’s Archiving team in action as they assessed, catalogued, and coded information about artefacts and photos that have been collected through donations over the years. And they had time to just catch up with family and friends!! And of course, there was the delicious Japanese Canadian food!! Ah yes, where else can you enjoy the home-cooking that reminds you of family meals and gatherings where the specialty dishes were served. So many tasty dishes prepared by a wonderful group of volunteers who worked for two days preparing and cooking the meal. It is only at gatherings like this where you have the opportunity to have such a wide assortment of truly Japanese Canadian food and then reminisce about the Japanese brown noodle chow mein sandwiches our mom’s packed for our lunch the next day!! Yes, Nostalgia Night 2014 was a great celebration and we look forward to our next one in 2015!! We hope you will circle the date on your calendars as soon as it is announced and join us as we continue to celebrate and honour members of our Japanese Canadian community.
