TIFF’s programing directors then took the stage to introduce the lineup for each section of the 29th edition, as well as to reiterate the prior announcements of the Opening film, Stephen Frears’ Florence Foster Jenkins and the Closing film, Yoshitaka From left: Daigo MATSUI, Yu AOI, Munetaka AOKI, MORI’s Satoshi: A Move for Tomorrow. and Mamoru HOSODA ©2016TIFF In the Competition section, 16 films were selected* from among 1,502 titles from 98 countries and regions.

The 29th TIFF will take place October 25 to November 3, 2016 at Roppongi Hills, EX Theater Roppongi (Minato City) and other theaters, halls and facilities in Tokyo Metropolitan Area. Notes and Quotes from the Press Conference Daigo Matsui – director, Japanese Girls Never Die – Competition Section It is such a great honor to participate in the TIFF Competition section. Three years ago, I participated in the Japanese Splash section, and ever since then, I was really eager to come back. I especially hoped to be selected this year because my film is a rather disturbing story about suburban Japan, which I want to show in this urban center of Tokyo. The heroine of the film is actually missing, but she is gradually becoming more and more famous because her image is being spread everywhere. I think it has resonance for Japan today. For further information or inquiries, please contact: TIFF Promotion Group Tel: +81-3-6226-3012; Fax: +81-3-6226-3023; email: [email protected] Publicity materials are available at www.image.net/ Official Website: www.tiff-jp.net/en/ Yu AOI – star, Japanese Girls Never Die – Competition Section This is the first time that I’ll be participating at TIFF, and I have to say that the director, Daigo Matsui, was so nervous about whether or not his film would be selected, and that made me nervous, too. He was so eager to be part of TIFF that he declined offers from other festivals. So I’m really relieved that this film was selected for the Competition. I really liked the original novel, which was written by a woman, since it depicts both the strengths and weaknesses of women. I think that many females in the audience will identify with the characters and have a memorable experience. I hope you all enjoy the film. Munetaka AOKI – star, Snow Woman – Competition Section This film is based on the well-known fable “Snow Woman” by Lafcadio Hearn (Yakumo Koizumi), and I’m very pleased to be here today to represent it at TIFF. It has a classical feeling, as well as a more modern touch, which was very challenging to make. The director and star, Kiki Sugino, said that she wanted to create a reinterpretation of this story, and I think her power really shines through. Mamoru HOSODA – director – “The World of Mamoru Hosoda” in Animation Focus I’m a little bit embarrassed, because this is the first time that all my works have been shown in a retrospective. However, I am excited to watch these films together with an audience, and I hope that this experience will be good for my next work. In addition, I’m delighted that the films I created at Toei Animation will be screened in the theater in remastered versions. Animation tends to be thought of as a medium for children, but I have been trying to create something different. Pushing the limits of the form, I want to direct a new style of animated film. Speakers’ Notes and Quotes from the Press Conference Yasushi SHIINA, Director General, 29th Tokyo International Film Festival (TIFF & TIFFCOM) We must remember that the most important about a film festival is the films themselves. I hope that all those who love and admire cinema can gather in Tokyo to celebrate the creativity of all these filmmakers and their new work. Yoshi YATABE, Competition Programming Director We selected 16 titles for the Competition, and we were guided in our selection by three main goals: we wanted to present the most important titles of the fall season, we wanted to showcase the most unique directors, and we wanted to present a wide range of visions from around the world. We discovered that one of the themes in many of this year’s works is the immigrant experience, and I think we can all learn a lot through what happens to the characters in these films.

Beineix studied medicine before entering the film industry. After working as assistant director for 12 years, he made his feature debut with DIVA, which was a worldwide success. Since then, he has directed many internationally successful films, such as Betty Blue (1986), Roselynne and the Lions (1989) and IP5: The Island of Pachyderms (1992, starring Yves Montand). He has directed a number of documentaries dealing with social issues. In 2013, a large exhibition featuring his creative cinema world, Studio Beineix, was held in Boulogne. As a multifaceted artist - film director, producer, writer, photographer, painter and musician, he takes risks, as he did for Roselyne and the Lions, entering a cage of wild beasts. His films and work are his image. He plays on synesthesia, music meeting colors and sensations, incorporating elements of real life and the memories of dream life. Jury Hideyuki Hirayama Director Born in Fukuoka Prefecture in 1950. Graduated from Nihon University College of Art. Worked on Hasegawa Kazuhiko’s 1976 film The Youth Killer as a crew member, and on a number of films as an assistant director, Hirayama made his directorial debut Maria's Stomach in 1990.

  • Notes for Chapter Re-Drafts
    Making Markets for Japanese Cinema: A Study of Distribution Practices for Japanese Films on DVD in the UK from 2008 to 2010 Jonathan Wroot PhD Thesis Submitted to the University of East Anglia For the qualification of PhD in Film Studies 2013 1 Making Markets for Japanese Cinema: A Study of Distribution Practices for Japanese Films on DVD in the UK from 2008 to 2010 2 Acknowledgements Thanks needed to be expressed to a number of people over the last three years – and I apologise if I forget anyone here. First of all, thank you to Rayna Denison and Keith Johnston for agreeing to oversee this research – which required reining in my enthusiasm as much as attempting to tease it out of me and turn it into coherent writing. Thanks to Mark Jancovich, who helped me get started with the PhD at UEA. A big thank you also to Andrew Kirkham and Adam Torel for doing what they do at 4Digital Asia, Third Window, and their other ventures – if they did not do it, this thesis would not exist. Also, a big thank you to my numerous other friends and family – whose support was invaluable, despite the distance between most of them and Norwich. And finally, the biggest thank you of all goes to Christina, for constantly being there with her support and encouragement. 3 Abstract The thesis will examine how DVD distribution can affect Japanese film dissemination in the UK. The media discourse concerning 4Digital Asia and Third Window proposes that this is the principal factor influencing their films’ presence in the UK from 2008 to 2010.

  • Kinotayo-2010
    PROGRAMME - PROGRAMME - PROGRAMME - PROGRAMME - 20 Nov 11 Déc 2010 5eme FESTIVAL DU FILM JAPONAIS CONTEMPORAIN Mascotte de Kinotayo 2010 140 projectionsAvec la participation d'Écrans - d'asie 25 villes Kinotayo2010 Yoshi OIDA, l’Acteur flottant, président du Festival Kinotayo 2010 Pour le festival Kinotayo, c’est un immense honneur que d’avoir pour président ce comédien, acteur, metteur en scène et écrivain insaisissable, animé par l’omniprésente énergie de la vie, sur scène et en dehors. Yoshi Oida est un acteur hors du commun. Né à Kobe en 1933, il a dédié sa vie aux théâtres du monde entier, en ayant pour seule ligne de conduite de renoncer à la facilité. Son apprentissage commence au Japon : il est initié au théâtre Nô par les plus grands maîtres de l’école Okura. De cette expérience, il retirera l’importance de l’harmonie entre tous les éléments qui constituent l’outil principal du comédien : son corps. Puis en 1968 Yoshi Oida est invité à Paris par Jean-Louis Barrault pour travailler avec Peter Brook. Il fonde avec ce dernier le Centre International de Recherche Théâtrale (CIRT). Au contact du « magicien du théâtre européen », il apprend que le comédien doit être « un vent léger, qui devenant de plus en plus fort, doit allumer une flamme et la faire grandir ». Aux côtés du maître, il apprend également la mise en scène, métier qui l’occupe énormément aujourd’hui. Il sillonne alors le monde à la recherche de la maîtrise théâtrale la plus complète, apprenant les jeux Africains, Indien, Persan. Il s’interroge sur la frontière entre la scène et la vie de tous les jours : « Qu’ai-je appris sur la scène qui pourrait m’aider à vivre ma vie d’homme ordinaire ? ».

A Season of Japanese Films by Contemporary Japanese Auteurs 10 February – 28 March 2012 : 7 venues in 7 cities in the UK I Just Didn‟t Do It, Dir Masayuki Suo, Japan, 2007 Following last year‟s successful Back To the Future: Japanese Cinema since the mid-90s season, this year‟s Japan Foundation touring film programme looks at narrative creativity in Japanese cinema, showcasing directors both young and emerging, such as Miwa Nishikawa and Takatsugu Naito, and the more established, such as Masayuki Suo (the director best-known for Shall We Dance). In recent years, Japanese cinema has been dominated by generic spin offs of media such as TV shows and manga, to generate an audience based on a pre-existing market. The nine films that have been chosen for this season however clearly demonstrate in fact the wealth of original writing and creativity evident in recent Japanese cinema. Having successfully forged and retained their own identities within what is one of the largest film markets in the world, these directors reject the “safe” formulaic film model and instead choose to pursue their own methods of expressing themselves through film. Audiences will be able to hear the individual directors‟ voices, whilst also being exposed to characteristics and techniques of some of the best examples of auteur directors from Japan. The film season is produced and organised by The Japan Foundation, and supported by the Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation.
