In his second year of high school\, Ryota plays with the Shohoku High School basketball team as they take the stage at the Inter-High School National Championship. And now\, they are on the brink of challenging the reigning champions\, Sannoh Kogyo High School. \nBased on the wildly popular Slam Dunk manga series by INOUE Takehiko\, The First Slam Dunk adapts the final match depicted in the manga and features original flashbacks and a new epilogue. The film won the Japan Academy Prize for Animation of the Year and was a huge box office success\, becoming the sixth highest-grossing Japanese film and the highest grossing basketball film of all time.   \n  \nThe First Slam Dunk is part of our Body & Soul: Japanese Sports Cinema series. \nThis event is now fully booked. Due to the popularity of the event\, there will NOT be a rush line for this screening. Thank you very much for your understanding!  \n  \nFree admission.  Register below.   \n\n Director Profile: \nINOUE Takehiko (井上 雄彦) is a Japanese manga artist. He is best known for the basketball series Slam Dunk (1990–1996)\, and the jidaigeki manga Vagabond\, which are two of the best-selling manga series in history. Many of his works are about basketball\, Inoue himself being a huge fan of the sport. Slam Dunk\, about a basketball team from Shohoku High School\, was published in Weekly Shōnen Jump from 1990 to 1996 and has sold over 170 million copies worldwide. Slam Dunk was adapted into an anime television series and four films. The manga’s popularity caused a surge of interest in basketball among Japanese youth\, leading to Inoue receiving commendation from the Japan Basketball Association for helping popularize basketball in the country. \nIn 2022\, Inoue made his directorial debut with the anime film adaptation of his Slam Dunk manga\, titled The First Slam Dunk. Inoue also wrote the screenplay and story for the film. In 2024\, he received the Best Director and Best Screenplay award for his work at the Tokyo Anime Award Festival. \n  URL:https://tr.jpf.go.jp/event/the-first-slam-dunk/ LOCATION:The Japan Foundation\, Toronto\, 2 Bloor St. East\, 3rd Floor\, Toronto\, ON\, M4W 1A8\, Canada CATEGORIES:Film,Film Screening ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://tr.jpf.go.jp/wp-content/uploads/SLAM_USPoster_2023-05-31_Print_MPA-scaled.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="The Japan Foundation%2C Toronto":MAILTO:info_jftoronto@jpf.go.jp GEO:43.6710659;-79.3857432 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=The Japan Foundation Toronto 2 Bloor St. East 3rd Floor Toronto ON M4W 1A8 Canada;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=2 Bloor St. East\, 3rd Floor:geo:-79.3857432,43.6710659 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20251018T113000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20251018T163000 DTSTAMP:20260722T101335 CREATED:20250311T213725Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260306T181725Z UID:101716-1760787000-1760805000@tr.jpf.go.jp SUMMARY:Hiroshima Appeals: A Poster Exhibition of Global Messages DESCRIPTION:『ヒロシマ・アピールズ・グローバル・メッセージ』 ポスター展 \nSpecial thanks to\nJapan Graphic Design Association Inc.\nThe DNP Foundation for Culture Promotion\nJapan Design Committee \nIn commemoration of the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki\, the entire annual series of the Hiroshima Appeals poster project is exhibited.  \nInitiated by JAGDA Hiroshima and Hiroshima International Cultural Foundation\, and currently also operated by The Hiroshima Peace Creation Fund\, the series demonstrates remarkably sustained continuity and ongoing efforts of world-wide compassion ( https://hiroshima.jagda.or.jp/appeals_about.html ). \nThe series consists of 29 posters\, headed by KAMEKURA Yūsaku’s masterpiece “Burning Butterflies” 1983\, continued with an unbroken sequence of works of high artistic excellence. \nSelected works from The Japan Foundation\, Toronto’s poster collection accompany the Hiroshima Appeals posters which share the unique nature of the design creation in being non-commercial\, abstract\, conceptual\, and focusing on global issues and subjects. \n\nAdmission: FREE \nAdvanced\, time-specific reservations are recommended. \nBook your visit here \nHand-sanitization at the entry and wearing face-coverings on our premises are recommended. \nGallery Hours: Open on Tuesdays\, Thursdays\, Fridays\, and Saturdays.

KAMEKURA Yūsaku designed “Butterflies Burning Falling” the first poster of the “Hiroshima Appeals” annual poster promotion project. JAGDA\, led by KAMEKURA Yūsaku\, also launched an annual national peace poster exhibition and competition\, in which all JAGDA members contributed and participated. These paired projects have worked together to advance the development and creation of peace posters for years to come. \nThis talk examines the leadership and contribution of two great Japanese designers\, KAMEKURA Yūsaku and FUKUDA Shigeo\, master and disciple\, to the peace posters genre. Together they discovered and nurtured the potential of peace posters by collaborative and competitive dynamics. \nPresented in celebration and admiration of the dedication\, generosity\, and foresight of the Japanese graphic design world—in particular\, two of its great designers\, KAMEKURA Yūsaku and FUKUDA Shigeo.
