#shinsedai10

Shinsedai is back for a second year. After a suc­cessful inaug­ural edi­tion last August, co-programmers Chris Magee (J-Film Powwow) and Jasper Sharp (Midnight Eye) have cur­ated an even stronger lineup of new inde­pendent Japanese cinema. This year’s fest­ival runs from July 22–25 at the gor­geous Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre. For such a young fest­ival, Shinsedai has been able to attract not only a strong lineup, but a sig­ni­ficant number of dir­ectors and actors will actu­ally be making the trip to intro­duce their films and con­duct Q&A ses­sions with the audience.

If you’re inter­ested in where Japanese cinema is heading, you need to check out the Shinsedai Cinema Festival. Check the site for film list­ings, schedule, ticket prices and directions.
