SUMMARY:Before We Vanish (film screening)
DESCRIPTION:Before We Vanish\n散歩する侵略者\n \nTuesday\, October 22\, 6:00PM (ET) \nDoors open 5:30PM | Film Screening | In-Person | JFT Event Hall | Free Admission \nDirected by KUROAWA Kiyoshi • 2017 • Sci-Fi  / Thriller • 129 minutes • Presented in Japanese with English subtitles • Trailer \nIn his twentieth film\, acclaimed horror director KUROSAWA Kiyoshi (Cure\, Pulse\, Tokyo Sonata) reinvents the alien movie as a unique and profoundly human tale of love and mystery.  \nAfter going missing for several days\, Shinji (MATSUA Ryuhei) mysteriously reappears\, acting nothing like his former self. His relationship with his wife Narumi (NAGASAWA Masami) had been on the rocks\, but now Shinji is calmer than before\, which only serves to exasperate Narumi further. Shinji also has a bizarre new daily routine of strolling around the neighborhood and engaging strangers in deep\, conceptual conversations with no apparent purpose. Elsewhere in town\, a family is brutally murdered\, and journalist Sakurai (HASEGAWA Hiroki) begins to investigate the odd circumstances of the killing. As an ominous mood spreads over an otherwise ordinary town\, Sakurai and Narumi each try to understand what lies behind the spiraling chaos.  \nEqually hilarious\, thrilling\, and profound\, Before We Vanish reminds audiences of the continued strength of one of Japanese cinema’s most unique auteurs\, and the value of the human spirit. \nThis is screening a part of our CURSED BODIES Halloween film series. \nFree admission. Register below. \n  \n\n\nRelated Programming: \n \nYokai Netsuke Exhibition \nOctober 17\, 2024 – January 25\, 2025 \nExperience the mysterious universe of Yōkai through these Netsuke figures\, which serve as gateways to bridge across the dimensions\, from flat images to three dimensional sculptures\, and from monochrome to colour. \nRegister Here
