SUMMARY:Views of Vengeance: Hana
DESCRIPTION:in conjunction with Legendary Loyalty: The 47 Ronin in Japanese Prints\nHana\nDirected by Hirokazu Kore-eda\n2006\, 120 min\nJapanese with English subtitles \n[Reservations are now closed. Thank you for your interest. We will have a rush line starting 30 minutes before the event\, and will start to release unclaimed seats 10 minutes before the event. Unfortunately\, we cannot guarantee a seat.] \nDespite being set in the same location and time period of the Ako incident\, Hana is a samurai revenge movie in which not much happens. If you’re expecting dramatic battle scenes and bloviating about honour\, you’ll definitely be disappointed. However\, if you approach it from the humanist perspective of master director’s Hirokazu Kore-eda’s best films\, you’ll find a neat slice of life in the Edo slums that tears down the machismo of the jidai-geki genre with spirited populism (and a surprising amount of toilet humour). \nIn Hana’s Edo\, unemployed peasants do a lot of hanging out\, entertaining themselves with games\, sparring and gossip. Their main “job” is producing manure\, which their landlord sells to farmers. Soza is an unemployed samurai looking to avenge his father’s death\, but he’s not highly motivated to do so. He’s basically a peaceful guy who enjoys taking baths\, playing with songbirds and teaching math and writing to the neighbourhood kids. Anyway\, everyone agrees that revenge is sort of “out of fashion.” In the absence of actual war\, there is an annual “vengeance play” put on by the villagers; meanwhile\, the legendary 47 ronin lurk in the background\, grumbling and biding their time…

SUMMARY:Japanese Movies in Hamilton: A Tale of Samurai Cooking

When a famous samurai chef from Kaga observes Haru’s culinary abilities\, he has a brilliant idea. The Funaki family\, who have served the Lord of Kaga for generations\, are known as “kitchen samurai” for their innovative dishes. However\, the heir to the family business\, Yasunobu\, shows little aptitude for or interest in cuisine. In order to save the Funaki family name and their reputation as kitchen samurai\, Haru agrees to marry Yasunobu and teach him the art of cooking.

Kaga Cuisine is famous for wide variety of luxurious dishes served on colorful lacquer ware and Kutani porcelain\, ranging from ordinary home cooking to Chinese-influenced haute cuisine rivalling even that of Kyoto.\nImage © 2013 A Tale of Samurai Cooking Film Partners

SUMMARY:Rakugo—Japanese Traditional Storytelling Performance
DESCRIPTION:co-presented by the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre and the Japan Foundation\, Toronto\nsubtitled in English\nGet ready to laugh this February! The Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre will host a “Rakugo-kai” with veteran Rakugo star Yanagiya Sankyo. \nHe became an apprentice to Yanagiya Kosan V and received the high shin’uchi rank in 1981. A gifted performer\, he is famous for his ability to portray the subtlest emotions of a character during a performance. \nIn rakugo\, a lone storyteller in traditional garb sits on stage. Using only a paper fan (sensu) and a small cloth (tenugui) as props\, and without standing up from the seiza sitting position\, the rakugo artist depicts a long and complicated comical story. The story always involves the dialogue of two or more characters\, the difference between the characters depicted only through change in pitch\, tone\, and a slight turn of the head.  Absolutely fascinating and guaranteed to leave you laughing. \n江戸時代から続く日本の伝統芸能の一つである落語。来年2017年 2月12日（日）に柳家さん喬師匠とお弟子さんの柳家喬之助さんを お招きして落語会が開催されます。さん喬師匠は近年より落語を通 して外国人に日本語と日本文化を紹介する活動を続けられていま す。まだまだ、寒さが続く2月、その寒さを笑いで吹き飛ばしましょう。 \nTickets: (416) 441-2345

SUMMARY:Cinema Kabuki in Vancouver
DESCRIPTION:CINEMA KABUKI \nIn high definition on the big screen\, direct from Japan\nSubtitled in English \nKabuki Theatre\, with origins dating back to the 1600s\, has remained steeped in tradition while constantly innovating itself. Live productions\, featuring some of today’s greatest Kabuki stars\, are now being filmed with the highest resolution cameras for screening in cinemas around the world on state-of-the-art digital projection systems and six-channel sound. \n________________________________________ \npresented by The Japan Foundation in association with the Consulate General of Japan in Vancouver \nCINEMA KABUKI\nSunday\, February 19\, 2017 \n11:55 am Kumagai’s Camp \n2:30 pm Three Thieves Named Kichisa   \nAdvance tickets available through Eventbrite. For Kumagai tickets click here\,  Three Thieves tickets here\nTickets also available on the day of the screening at the theatre. \n  \nKUMAGAI’s CAMP (a samurai tragedy)\nKumagai Jin’ya 熊谷陣屋 : 一谷嫩軍記 いちのたに ふたば ぐんき \n\n \nPremiered in 1751 as a puppet theatre play\nWritten by Namiki Sosuke\nRecorded live at Kabuki-za Theatre\, Tokyo\, 2010 \n104 min.\nSubtitled in English \nFor trailer please click here: For synopsis and more background click here. \nA samurai hero struggles on the battlefield. But on his day of triumph\, Kumagai\, one of the commanding officers\, suffers in agony trying to fulfill his duty and devotion to his lord Yoshitsune. This play was originally written for the puppet theatre and through its formal structure achieves the passion and solemnity of classic drama. A powerful warrior is transformed from a statuesque figure to a pure victim of the inhumanity of war. The decisions which will be made will change lives. This character development is depicted stylistically through the sung narration of Gidayu music. Three Living National Treasures—Kichiemon\, Tomijuro\, and Tojuro—create a splendid tableau of historical grandeur. \n  \nTHREE THIEVES NAMES KICHISA (an urban outlaw story)\nSan’nin Kichisa 三人吉三 : 三人吉三廓初買 さんにんきちさくるわのはつかい \n\n \nPremiered in 1860\nWritten by Kawatake Mokuami\nDirected for the stage and Cinema Kabuki by Kushida Kazuyoshi\nRecorded live at Theater Cocoon\, Shibuya\, Tokyo\, 2014 \n136 min.\nSubtitled in English \nFor trailer please click here: For synopsis and more background click here. \nEarly 19th-century Edo (the former name of Tokyo) had juvenile delinquents and outlaws everywhere. Urban culture was overripe. Three thieves happen to meet on a dark New Year’s night. They feel compassion for each other instantly and vow brotherhood. But they do not know that this encounter is only one milestone of their fate. Long before the three meet\, their lives have already been entangled. An intricate web of destiny eventually drives them to their deaths. Kankuro\, Shichinosuke\, and Matsuya are three of the most promising young Kabuki actors. This classic play is given new life by these young talents in an unconventional production by Kushida at a contemporary venue\, Theater Cocoon\, located in the Shibuya district of Tokyo\, known as the Street of Youth.

SUMMARY:Continuing Learning Japanese 23: Sharing Activities Targeting Speaking Proficiency
DESCRIPTION:日本語教師情報交換会：日本語学習を継続させる 23\n 「口頭能力を伸ばす教室活動」の共有\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。 \n第23回目となる今回は、「口頭能力を伸ばす教室活動」についての情報共有を行います。学習者の口頭能力を伸ばす活動は、学習者も教師も行いたい活動でありながらも、教室内ではなかなか時間が避けないということも聞きます。そこで、今回の勉強会では、ウォーミングアップとして使える活動や教室外でもできる活動も含め、会話はもちろん、クラスでプレゼンをする、グループでスキットを作って演じるなど、教室内で盛り上がった口頭能力を伸ばす活動や学生たちに人気のあった活動などの日々の実践を参加者同士で共有できる場としたいと思います。 \n参加者の皆様には、是非ご自身のこれまでの教室活動等を振り返ってご出席いただければと思います。具体的な活動内容を紹介し合えるように実際にお使いになった教案や教材などをお持ちください。 \n参加ご希望の方は以下をご確認の上、本ページ下段よりお申し込みください。 \n日時：2017年2月25日（土）　午後2時30分～ 5時　（開場：午後2時）\n会場：The Japan Foundation\, Toronto    2 Bloor Street East\, Suite 300\, Toronto\, Ontario\n参加申込： 登録必須 \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: http://www.cajle.info/ \n＊なお、2月4日（土）に第二回JFT日本語教師研修：「授業の中で話す力を育てるにはどうしたらいいのか？」も行いますので、是非こちらもご参加ください。同教師研修の詳細、お申込は以下のサイトをご確認ください。\nhttps://tr.jpf.go.jp/event/2017_workshop01/\n  \nInformation Exchange Meeting for Japanese Language Teachers:\nContinuing Learning Japanese 23\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. \nIn the 23rd event of the series\, we would like to share activities targeting speaking proficiency. Although both students and teachers are always interested in speaking activities\, we often hear that there is no time in the classroom. We welcome participants to share any speaking activities such as conversation activities\, presentations\, and skits\, which came alive in your classroom and were popular with your students\, including warm-up and even out-of-class activities. \nWe ask that participants reflect beforehand on their own classroom and bring materials\, etc. to introduce the activities they wish to share during this gathering. \nPlease join us! \nDate: Saturday\, February 25\, 2017\nTime: 2:30 pm to 5:00 pm (Doors open at 2pm)\nPlace: The Japan Foundation\, Toronto   2 Bloor Street East\, Suite 300\, Toronto\, Ontario\nRegistration (mandatory): Please register using the form below. \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: http://www.cajle.info/ \n* JFT Teachers’ workshop: “How can we raise students’ speaking ability in class?” is also scheduled on Saturday\, February 4.

DESCRIPTION:Presented in cooperation with the Hamilton Central Public Library\n\nDirected by Atsunori Kawamura\n2012\, 113 minutes\nDocumentary \n“I hope that soup will\, in its own unobtrusive way\, warmly nurture love and peace. I am convinced that from our first breath to our last\, soups and broths can help us to find comfort and peace.” -Yoshiko Tatsumi \nThis documentary delves into the origins of the “soup of life” made by chef and essayist Yoshiko Tatsumi\, which she originally created as a nourishing food for her bed-ridden father. Tatsumi\, a popular TV personality (Kyo no Ryori) and writer\, works with local food producers to ensure the most wholesome ingredients\, and shares her wisdom and experience in popular cooking classes held at her home. \nYoshiko Tatsumi was born in Kanagawa Prefecture in 1924. Her mother was Hamako Tatsumi\, the pioneering home cooking expert. She is the author of over 40 books and winner of the 2010 NHK (Japan BroadcastingCorporation) Broadcasting and Culture Award. \nImage © 2012 Tennoshizuku Film Partners.
