SUMMARY:Always\, Sunset on Third Street Trilogy: 1st  Cycle
DESCRIPTION:ALWAYS\, Sunset on Third Street Trilogy\n『三丁目の夕日』三部作全編ブルーレイ上映\nComplete trilogy of blu-ray screenings\nIn conjunction with Tokyo Before/After photography exhibition \nThe 1st screening cycle: May 3\, 7\, and 16 \nThe 2nd screening cycle: May 22\, 31\, and June 4 \n  \nScreenings at The Japan Foundation\, Toronto \n2 Bloor St. E. Suite 300\, 3rd floor of Hudson’s Bay Centre\, above Royal Bank \nAdmission free \nBased on manga by Ryōhei Saigan \nDirected by Takashi Yamazaki (Part 1: 2005\, Part 2: 2007\, Part 3: 2012) \nAll films are presented in Japanese with English subtitles. \nIn the photography exhibition TOKYO Before/After\, photographs from the 1930s and 1940s are contrasted with works after 2010. World War II with its destructive air raids marks the boundary between these two groups of photographs. Tokyo has gone through so many pivotal incidents in its urban history. The Meiji Restoration in 1868 followed by the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923 transformed the city from Edo to Tokyo. Post-war recovery and reconstruction were celebrated with the Tokyo Olympic Games in 1964. Both the even higher fever of the Bubble economy and its sudden burst transformed the city again at the tail end of the 20th century. What will the upcoming Olympic Games in 2020 do to the city? We all wonder. \n  \nALWAYS\, Sunset on Third Street was such a big hit film in 2005 that a sequel was produced immediately by popular demand. In 2012 Part 3 was added to complete a trilogy of films describing the downtown life of Tokyo in 1958\, 1959\, and 1964. Symbolically standing in the middle of the stories\, the Tokyo Tower\, first in construction\, and then in full function in the television industry\, is a strong unifying image. This heartwarming neighbourhood comedy reminds us that social and cultural changes ALWAYS involve living people who struggle and survive thorough those challenging times. Going through the drama of dealing with changes and progress\, the same individuals who witnessed the events of Before remain in the new world of After to testify about the past. But\, sometimes the memories and testimonies are funny and whimsical\, as are these films. \nThe 1st screening cycle \nThursday\, May 3\, 2018  6:30 P.M. 133 min. \nALWAYS\, Sunset on Third Street Part 1\, 1958 \nMonday\, May 7\, 2018  6:30 P.M\, 145 min. \nALWAYS\, Sunset on Third Street Part 2\, 1959 \nWednesday\, May 16\, 2018  6:30 P.M. 142 min. \nALWAYS\, Sunset on Third Street Part 3\, 1964 \nFor the second screening cycle click here >

SUMMARY:Ghost in the Shell 2: INNOCENCE
DESCRIPTION:GHOST IN THE SHELL 2: INNOCENCE \n@JFT\, free admission \nSaturday May 12\, 3:00 PM \nThursday May 24\, 6:30 PM \nDirected by Mamoru Oshii [2004] 99 minutes \nMamoru Oshii\, the visionary mind behind animated sci-fi hit Ghost In The Shell (1995)\, makes his long-awaited return to feature animation with this visually stunning\, thought-provoking sequel. \nIn this second installment of the high-action movie series\, cyborg detective Batou’s search for the Major Motoko Kusanagi is put on hold when a rash of gruesome murders plagues Tokyo. With every lead comes more questions. The culprits? Beloved robotic companions programmed to obey. With his mostly human partner Togusa in tow\, Batou is assigned to investigate what his superiors see as a possible terrorist threat. Through coming in contact with robots of all shapes and purposes\, he begins to question his very existence. As they delve deeper into the opaque recesses of their society\, Batou’s consciousness itself is hacked and his grip on reality becomes increasingly tenuous. The roots of the conspiracy are exposed upon journeying to a mysterious mansion in the independent trade zone of Hokkaido\, but it leads Batou into a trap and he is saved only by the intervention of his incorporeal former partner\, Motoko. He solves the case with her help\, and Motoko once again recedes into the vast expanses of the network. \nMamoru Oshii is a Japanese filmmaker\, television director\, screenwriter and producer. Some of his other notable works include live-actions and anime films such as Urusei Yatsura\, Avalon\, Patlabor\, The Sky Crawlers\, Kerberos Saga\, Blood\, Red Spectacles and Jin-Roh. He also directed the 2014 Japan-Canada co-production Garm Wars: The Last Druid\, the only English language film he has created. \nAwards and nominations for Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence\nNominated Palme d’Or at Cannes Film Festival \nFeature Film Award at Animation Kobe \nNihon SF Taisho Award \nOrient Express Award at the Catalan International Film Festival

SUMMARY:ART OF THE GAME: Ukiyo-e Heroes
DESCRIPTION:@Anime North \nSaturday May 26\, 2018\, 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM \nInternational C\, Video Room 1 \nDelta Hotel\, 655 Dixon Rd\, Etobicoke\, ON M9W 1J3 \nAdmission: Saturday or Weekend pass to Anime North \nTicket info > \n  \nART OF THE GAME: Ukiyo-e Heroes \nDirected by Toru Tokikawa\, 2017 \nA journey of discovery into how a Canadian craftsman and an American designer\, with a father and son generation gap\, team up to revive the ancient art of Japanese woodblock prints (Ukiyo-e) by juxtaposing traditional art with pop culture icons: video game heroes such as Super Mario and Pokémon. Now they are making a new print inspired from a cult hit game Shadow of the Colossus. \nUkiyo-e: The traditional art form known worldwide as the “Face of Japan” has over several hundred years inspired Van Gogh\, Monet and Picasso to create their masterpieces. Today\, there are less than 10 remaining craftsmen in Japan. \nWe follow the making-of of their new print and witness the miraculous collaboration of the two contrasting artists: old-school and new-school\, artisanal and digital\, who need each other to create inspirational for a global audience. We also feature iconic Japanese craftsmen who work with them\, including Ichibei Iwano\, who is the 8th generation handmade Japanese paper grand master. \nLink to the Ukiyoe Heroes works > https://ukiyoeheroes.com/ \n  \n \nTrailer \n“ART OF THE GAME: Ukiyo-e Heroes” is available on: \niTunes (digital/rental  \nAmazon (Blu-ray) \n  \nWebsite: https://www.facebook.com/artofthegamedoc/ \nReviews & Updates: https://twitter.com/artofthegamedoc \nPosters: https://www.instagram.com/artofthegame \nIMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt5706420/
