A lunatic satire of the universal tensions between urban and rural; overflowing with energy\, hilarity\, and over-the-top action. \nStarring\nFumi Nikaido\, Gackt\, Yusuke Iseya\, Kumiko Aso\, Ryo Narita\, Naoto Takenaka \n\n\n\n(c)2019 “Fly me to the Saitama” Film Partners \nENJOY THE SHOW \n*The link will go on live at Friday\, August 21 @ 9 AM \nWe love to hear how you liked the film\, please fill out the short questionnaire here > Feedback \n\nAll films are in Japanese with English subtitles. \nTickets and details here > \n\n \n

Our aim is that this “Reference Collection” will be useful in both synchronous and asynchronous online classes through bringing together useful digital resources\, videos\, etc. that can be used with the Marugoto textbooks. \nThis current project will target materials to use with Marugoto Intermediate B1\, specifically. Topics/sections of the textbook will be divided amongst the project members\, and each group or person will create a “Resource Collection” for the section they are tasked with. Examples of materials are convenient websites used by the project members or self-made teaching materials. Something made specifically for this project is also welcome! We hope that this can be an opportunity for teachers to bring together useful resources they can use in their own classrooms. The final collection will also be shared on our website so it can be used by everyone in the future. \nOn August 8 we will have a session to explain the outline of the project before we ask individuals to confirm their participation\, so please feel free to join us if you are interested. \nWe look forward to meeting teachers interested in joining our Maruguto Teaching Material Project! \nDate and Time: \n1.

SUMMARY:Continuing Learning Japanese 33: Japanese Language Courses at Huron University College
DESCRIPTION:日本語教師情報交換会：日本語学習を継続させる 33\nカナダ日本語教育振興会（CAJLE）\n国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター \nトロント及びトロント近郊ではさまざまな年齢とレベルの学習者を対象に日本語教育が行われていますが、実際に教えている教師たちはほかの教育機関で行われていること、時には同じプログラム内であっても、自分以外の先生がしていることをあまりよく知らないのが現状だと思います。今、自分の目の前にいる学習者がどのような環境で何を学んできたのかを知り、そして今後彼らが日本語学習を継続するにあたりどのような選択肢があるのかを知ることは、教師にとって大変意味のあることだと考えます。また、教師間のネットワークを活性化させることにより、さまざまなレベルでの意見交換が頻繁に行われることにもなるでしょう。カナダ日本語教育振興会（CAJLE）と国際交流基金トロント日本文化センターでは、2009年12月より、日本語教育機関やプログラム間の“アーティキュレーション（連携、継続性）”のための素地を築くことを目指した集まりを企画してまいりました。今回初めてオンラインでの実施を行います。 \n今回はHuron University Collegeでの日本語講座のご紹介とオンラインでの取り組みについてお話いただきます。参加ご希望の方は以下をご確認の上、ウェブサイトからお申し込みください。 \n日時：2020年8月5日（水）　午後7時～ 8時15分（東部時間）\n　　　お住まいの地域での時刻はこちらでご確認ください\n　　　Zoom入室開始：午後6時30分\n　　　＊開始2時間前にMeeting IDを送付しますので、それまでにお申し込みください \n発表者：Huron University College　河井　道也先生、赤井　佐和子先生、白川　理恵先生、福井　視先生 \nスケジュール： \n１．学校紹介\n２．オンライン授業の背景\n３．学生アンケートに基づく、実践と感想\n４．評価について：試験の実施と対策\n５．秋学期に向けて、これからの課題 \n参考資料： \n・「日本語教師情報交換会：日本語学習を継続させる」会の趣旨についての説明（動画）\n・日本語講座の分類表（PDF） \n定員：100名（うち60名はカナダ在住者優先） \n＊ご質問等ございましたら、担当者までご連絡願います。 \n担当：\n国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター　　齋藤典子\nE-mail: nsaito@jftor.org     Web site: www.jftor.org\nCAJLE　小室リー郁子\nE-mail: ikuko.komuro.lee@utoronto.ca           Web site: www.cajle.info \n  \nInformation Exchange Meeting for Japanese Language Teachers:\nContinuing Learning Japanese 33\nCanadian Association for Japanese Language Education (CAJLE)\nThe Japan Foundation\, Toronto \nJapanese is taught at several secondary schools in Toronto and its surrounding areas. Yet\, it appears that teachers do not know much about the other institutions\, courses or programmes. This lack of understanding can sometimes be found even within the same institution. We believe that it is very important and necessary for teachers to know what their current students have previously studied and in what type of environment that education took place. Similarly\, it is important to be informed of the available learning opportunities for students who wish to continue studying Japanese.  We believe it is essential for teachers to build a strong and active network that enables them to communicate with one another. Since December 2009\, the Canadian Association for Japanese Language Education (CAJLE) and the Japan Foundation\, Toronto have been co-organizing events to build a good foundation for the articulation of Japanese language education. \nFor the 33rd event of the series\, we will introduce Japanese language courses at Huron University College. Please register using the form below. \nDate and Time: Wednesday\, August 5th\, 2020  7:00 pm to 8:15 pm (EDT)\n　　　Click here to confirm the time in the region you live in.\n　　　Zoom meeting accessible from 6:30 pm\n　　　＊The Zoom Meeting ID will be sent to participants 2 hours before the event starts\, so please make sure to register before then. \nPresenters: Dr. Michiya Kawai\, Dr. Sawako Akai\, Ms. Rie Shirakawa\, Ms. Mitsume Fukui\, Huron University College \nSchedule: \n1.

DESCRIPTION:日本語教師情報交換会：日本語学習を継続させる 32\nカナダ日本語教育振興会（CAJLE）\n国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター \nトロント及びトロント近郊ではさまざまな年齢とレベルの学習者を対象に日本語教育が行われていますが、実際に教えている教師たちはほかの教育機関で行われていること、時には同じプログラム内であっても、自分以外の先生がしていることをあまりよく知らないのが現状だと思います。今、自分の目の前にいる学習者がどのような環境で何を学んできたのかを知り、そして今後彼らが日本語学習を継続するにあたりどのような選択肢があるのかを知ることは、教師にとって大変意味のあることだと考えます。また、教師間のネットワークを活性化させることにより、さまざまなレベルでの意見交換が頻繁に行われることにもなるでしょう。カナダ日本語教育振興会（CAJLE）と国際交流基金トロント日本文化センターでは、2009年12月より、日本語教育機関やプログラム間の“アーティキュレーション（連携、継続性）”のための素地を築くことを目指した集まりを企画してまいりました。今回初めてオンラインでの実施を行います。 \n今回はヨーク地区教育委員会での日本語講座のご紹介とオンラインでの取り組みについてお話いただきます。参加ご希望の方は以下をご確認の上、ウェブサイトからお申し込みください。 \n日時：2020年7月26日（日）　午後2時～ 3時15分（東部時間）\n　　　お住まいの地域での時刻はこちらでご確認ください\n　　　Zoom入室開始：午後１時30分\n　　　＊開始2時間前にMeeting IDを送付しますので、それまでにお申し込みください \nスケジュール： \n１．学校紹介　ヨーク地区教育委員の日本語講座の概要と実践\n２．質問＆オープンディスカッション \n定員：100名（うち60名はカナダ在住者優先） \n＊ご質問等ございましたら、担当者までご連絡願います。 \n担当：\n国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター　　齋藤典子\nE-mail: nsaito@jftor.org     Web site: www.jftor.org\nCAJLE　小室リー郁子\nE-mail: ikuko.komuro.lee@utoronto.ca           Web site: www.cajle.info \n  \nInformation Exchange Meeting for Japanese Language Teachers:\nContinuing Learning Japanese 32\nCanadian Association for Japanese Language Education (CAJLE)\nThe Japan Foundation\, Toronto \nJapanese is taught at several secondary schools in Toronto and its surrounding areas. Yet\, it appears that teachers do not know much about the other institutions\, courses or programmes. This lack of understanding can sometimes be found even within the same institution. We believe that it is very important and necessary for teachers to know what their current students have previously studied and in what type of environment that education took place. Similarly\, it is important to be informed of the available learning opportunities for students who wish to continue studying Japanese.  We believe it is essential for teachers to build a strong and active network that enables them to communicate with one another. Since December 2009\, the Canadian Association for Japanese Language Education (CAJLE) and the Japan Foundation\, Toronto have been co-organizing events to build a good foundation for the articulation of Japanese language education. \nFor the 32nd event of the series\, we will introduce Japanese language courses at York Region District School Board. Please register using the form below. \nDate and Time: Sunday\, July 26th\, 2020  2:00 pm to 3:15 pm (EDT)\n　　　Click here to confirm the time in the region you live in.\n　　　Zoom meeting accessible from 1:30 pm\n　　　＊The Zoom Meeting ID will be sent to participants 2 hours before the event starts\, so please make sure to register before then. \nSchedule: \n1. Presentation: Japanese language program of York Region District School Board\n2. Q&A and open discussion \nLimit of Participants: 100 (Canadian participants have priority for the first 60 spots.) \n* Please feel free to contact the following individuals if you have any questions: \nFor Inquiries:\nNoriko Saito (The Japan Foundation\, Toronto)\nE-mail: nsaito@jftor.org　　Web site: www.jftor.org \nIkuko Komuro-Lee (CAJLE)\nE-mail: ikuko.komuro.lee@utoronto.ca　　Web site: www.cajle.info

If you’re lonely\, rent a cat!” And finding customers is not a problem: an old lady would like to buy a pet but fears that it will outlive her; a hen-pecked father; a rental company employee hoping a cat will ease her loneliness. But ever since her grandmother’s death\, Sayoko is lonely too. Until one day\, when a mysterious young man from her past appears on the riverbank… \n\n\nStarring\nMikako Ichikawa\, Reiko Kusamura\, Ken Mitsuishi\, Maho Yamada\, Kei Tanaka\n\n\n  \nENJOY THE SHOW \n*The link will go on live at Friday\, July 24 @ 9am \nPlease let us know how you enjoyed the film so we can continue to offer films for free or for low fees by submitting Feedback \n\n\nAll films are in Japanese with English subtitles. \nTickets and details here >

SUMMARY:Manga Hokusai Manga: Approaching the Master's Compendium from the Perspective of Contemporary Comics
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce that the JFT Gallery will reopen from Thursday\, July 23\, 2020. The health and safety of our guests and staff members is our primary concern. As we re-open the Gallery to the public\, we ask you for your cooperation to keep the Gallery a safe place for yourself\, for other visitors and for our staff by carefully reading the following JFT Acknowledgement and Guidelines below: JFT Acknowledgement and Guidelines \n\nWhat to expect when you visit the Gallery\n\nIn order to manage the flow and capacity of visitors\, all visitors must make a booking prior to visiting\nAll visitors and staff must wear a mask inside the building\nPlease use hand sanitizer provided at the entrance\nPlease keep a safe space (2 metres) between yourself\, other guests and staff\nNo lockers are available at this time\, so please travel light and avoid bringing large bags and backpacks\nIn order to prevent the spread of COVID-19\, we may decline entry to those who are non-compliant with the regulations listed above.\nThe Bloor street and concourse level entrances are open.

Instructions on how to contact JFT staff will be in the booking confirmation\n\n\nManga Hokusai Manga:\n\n\n\nApproaching the Master’s Compendium from the Perspective of Contemporary Comics\n\n\n\n\n\n「マンガ・北斎・漫画」展 — 現代日本マンガから見た『北斎漫画』\n\n\n\nJuly 23 – September 18\, 2020 (extended dates!)\nIn light of Japan’s contemporary comics and their global proliferation\, the 19th-century Hokusai Manga is attracting increasing interest. Fans worldwide tend to even regard this pictorial compendium by ukiyo-e artist Katsushika Hokusai as the origin of today’s manga. But the outward appearance of these two types of manga does not immediately suggest a continuous tradition. Do present-day graphic narratives and the master’s “diverse drawings” share anything other than a name? Unlike past exhibitions of Hokusai’s work\, Manga Hokusai Manga approaches the Hokusai Manga from the perspective of contemporary Japanese comics\, focusing on genre\, pictorial storytelling and participatory culture rather than the integration of word and image or the role of popular characters. And instead of aiming at a historiographic verification of influences\, the exhibition invites viewers to ponder their own notions about manga by comparing works from different periods while exploring the diversity therein.

SUMMARY:Kampai! For the Love of Sake
DESCRIPTION:Kampai! For the Love of Sake カンパイ！世界が恋する日本酒\n2015 (95 min.) Screening July 10 – 12\, 2020 \nDirected by KONISHI Mirai \nCo-presented by The Japan Foundation\, Toronto and The Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre\, in conjunction with the Online Sake School with TAJIRI Mariko \nTickets $5.99 \nThis screening requires the purchase of a ticket on JCCC’s website. \nWatch film here > \nWe love to hear your feedback\, please click here for a short questionnaire > \nJapanese cuisine is now one of the most popular cuisines all over the globe. However\, there is one essential component that is often missing at the tables of international Japanese eateries – SAKE. Sake\, often called Japanese rice wine\, is an alcoholic beverage made from fermented rice and has a wide range of variety. This special drink has a long\, deep history in Japanese culture\, but outside of Japan\, its still not well known and somewhat inaccessible\, which makes it very hard to enjoy sake if you’re trying it for the first time. \nFor the Love of Sake journeys from rice paddies in Japan to breweries around the globe as it chronicles three passionate exponents of the increasingly popular beverage: a British ex-pat who has become Japan’s first foreign master brewer\, an American journalist known as the ‘Sake Evangelist\,’ and a fifth-generation Japanese brewer determined to shake up the industry. Together\, their stories form a fascinating snapshot of how ancient traditions are adapting to the demands of a growing global market. \nFeaturing Kosuke Kuji\, Chizuru Doi\, John Gauntner\, Hiroshi Kuji \n  \n[ Film Festivals\, Awards ] \n2015 San Sebastian International Film Festival\, Culinary Cinema\n2015 Tokyo International Film Festival\, Panorama\n2015 Hawaii International Film Festival\, Eat.Drink.Film \n[About KONISHI Mirai\, director\, producer\, editor] \nMirai Konishi\, a journalist and filmmaker\, grew up in Japan and studied film at the University of Southern California (USC). Mirai’s short films have screened at numerous film festivals\, to be included at Short Shorts Film Festival for BLIND (1999) and Tokyo Fantastic Film Festival for CLOSE TO YOU (2003). His feature debut documentary\, KAMPAI! FOR THE LOVE OF SAKE (2015) premiered at the San Sebastian International Film Festival\, and went on to the Tokyo International Film Festival and Hawaii International Film Festival\, among others. Mirai is also a journalist specializing in cinema and contributes to the Japanese publications Roadshow and Cut. In 2012\, he was honored by an invitation to join the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. His most recent directing work is KAMPAI! SAKE SISTERS (2019). \n\nONLINE SAKE SCHOOL with TAJIRI Mariko\n \nJoin us for a fascinating look into the world of Japan’s national drink with international sake sommelier and educator TAJIRI Mariko.  Mariko will present three independent 90-minute seminars\, each addressing a different facet of sake and the culture around its creation and enjoyment. Co-presented by the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre and the Japan Foundation\, Toronto. \nDetails here > \nTrailer for Kampai! below >

SUMMARY:Continuing Learning Japanese 31: Japanese Language Courses at Seneca College
DESCRIPTION:日本語教師情報交換会：日本語学習を継続させる 31\nカナダ日本語教育振興会（CAJLE）\n国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター \nトロント及びトロント近郊ではさまざまな年齢とレベルの学習者を対象に日本語教育が行われていますが、実際に教えている教師たちはほかの教育機関で行われていること、時には同じプログラム内であっても、自分以外の先生がしていることをあまりよく知らないのが現状だと思います。今、自分の目の前にいる学習者がどのような環境で何を学んできたのかを知り、そして今後彼らが日本語学習を継続するにあたりどのような選択肢があるのかを知ることは、教師にとって大変意味のあることだと考えます。また、教師間のネットワークを活性化させることにより、さまざまなレベルでの意見交換が頻繁に行われることにもなるでしょう。カナダ日本語教育振興会（CAJLE）と国際交流基金トロント日本文化センターでは、2009年12月より、日本語教育機関やプログラム間の“アーティキュレーション（連携、継続性）”のための素地を築くことを目指した集まりを企画してまいりました。今回初めてオンラインでの実施を行います。 \n今回はセネカ・カレッジでの日本語講座のご紹介とオンラインでの取り組みについてお話いただきます。参加ご希望の方は以下をご確認の上、ウェブサイトからお申し込みください。 \n日時：2020年7月4日（土）　午後2時～ 3時15分（東部時間）\n　　　お住まいの地域での時刻はこちらでご確認ください\n　　　Zoom入室開始：午後１時30分\n　　　＊開始2時間前にMeeting IDを送付しますので、それまでにお申し込みください \nスケジュール： \n１．学校紹介　セネカカレッジ（諸橋 雅美先生、中島 佳子先生、高橋 絵里先生、宮本 理絵先生）\n２．質問＆オープンディスカッション \n定員：100名（うち60名はカナダ在住者優先） \n＊ご質問等ございましたら、担当者までご連絡願います。 \n担当：\n国際交流基金トロント日本文化センター　　齋藤典子\nE-mail: nsaito@jftor.org     Web site: www.jftor.org\nCAJLE　小室リー郁子\nE-mail: ikuko.komuro.lee@utoronto.ca           Web site: www.cajle.info \n  \nInformation Exchange Meeting for Japanese Language Teachers:\nContinuing Learning Japanese 31\nCanadian Association for Japanese Language Education (CAJLE)\nThe Japan Foundation\, Toronto \nJapanese is taught at several secondary schools in Toronto and its surrounding areas. Yet\, it appears that teachers do not know much about the other institutions\, courses or programmes. This lack of understanding can sometimes be found even within the same institution. We believe that it is very important and necessary for teachers to know what their current students have previously studied and in what type of environment that education took place. Similarly\, it is important to be informed of the available learning opportunities for students who wish to continue studying Japanese.  We believe it is essential for teachers to build a strong and active network that enables them to communicate with one another. Since December 2009\, the Canadian Association for Japanese Language Education (CAJLE) and the Japan Foundation\, Toronto have been co-organizing events to build a good foundation for the articulation of Japanese language education. \nFor the 31st event of the series\, we will introduce Japanese language courses at Seneca College. Please register using the form below. \nDate and Time: Saturday\, July 4\, 2020  2:00 pm to 3:15 pm (EDT)\n　　　Click here to confirm the time in the region you live in.\n　　　Zoom meeting accessible from 1:30 pm\n　　　＊The Zoom Meeting ID will be sent to participants 2 hours before the event starts\, so please make sure to register before then. \nSchedule: \n1. Presentation: Ms. Miyabi Morohashi\, Ms. Keiko Nakajima\, Dr. Eri Takahashi\, and Ms. Rie Miyamoto\, Seneca College\n2. Q&A and open discussion \nLimit of Participants: 100 (Canadian participants have priority for the first 60 spots.) \n* Please feel free to contact the following individuals if you have any questions: \nFor Inquiries:\nNoriko Saito (The Japan Foundation\, Toronto)\nE-mail: nsaito@jftor.org　　Web site: www.jftor.org \nIkuko Komuro-Lee (CAJLE)\nE-mail: ikuko.komuro.lee@utoronto.ca　　Web site: www.cajle.info

SUMMARY:From The Portapak to The Aniputer: Experimentation and Exchange in Early Japanese Video Art
DESCRIPTION:In February of 1972\, the Sony Showroom in Tokyo’s Ginza district hosted “Video Communication: D.I.Y. Kit\,” commonly considered the first exhibition of video art in Japan. Organized in part by Canadian artist Michael Goldberg\, a founding member of Vancouver’s long-running video art centre VIVO\, the interactive event encapsulated several defining elements of early Japanese video art: transnational collaboration\, support from adventurous technological corporations\, and formal creativity. \nInformed by research recently conducted through a Japan Foundation fellowship\, this presentation outlines the role of collaboration and experimentation in the first two decades of Japanese video art — particularly the fruitful exchanges of technology\, workshops\, and artworks between Japan and Canada — as seen through work by Japanese artists and collectives such as Video Earth Tokyo\, Video Hiroba\, and Keigo Yamamoto\, as well as the conceptually connected work of Vancouver-based contemporaries Goldberg\, Taki Bluesinger\, and more. \n\nThis is an exclusively online event. Prior registration is required. A secure link to the lecture will be sent to the registered email address 24 hours before the start of the event.\n\n\nJesse Cumming is a freelance curator\, researcher\, and writer based in Toronto\, Canada. He has curated\, co-curated\, and presented programs with The Museum of Modern Art\, Anthology Film Archives\, The Musée des Beaux Arts Montreal\, Collectif Jeune Cinéma\, Art Toronto\, Concordia University\, The City of Vancouver Archives\, and more.
