Press release of the 13 th of April 2017 For immediate release UDINE - Who turned out the lights? Nobody did, and the fuses haven't blown. And no, it's not even a power cut.

It's with the world screeching to a halt of the irresistible Japanese road movie Survival Family that the highly anticipated Far East Film Festival 19 opens: not just because Yaguchi Shinobu' s wonderful comedy is the festival's starting pistol on Friday the 21 st of April, but also for a question of symmetry: just like the blackout in Survival Family , the FEFF is an interruption .

First, I would like to thank my Sakae and Taiyonomachi classes for always being patient with me and for taking time out of their busy schedules to write feedback about each of the topics. Second, I am very grateful to Toshihiko Kamegaya, Mayumi Noda, Katsuko Usui, Terukazu Chinen and Naoko Ueda for providing the anecdotes in the section titled “Voices from Japan.” Third, I would like to give a special thanks to Paul LeVasseur, my advisor and teacher, whose Four Skills class inspired me to do this project and whose insightful comments about this paper were invaluable. I would also like to thank the summer faculty at SIT for their dedication and commitment to the teaching profession and to their students. Next, I would like to acknowledge my reader, Kevin O’Donnell, for guiding me in the right direction and for spending time, in his already hectic schedule, to read my paper.
