The 7th Japan Cuts is nigh!
The New York Festival of Contemporary Japanese Cinema Returns:
Thursday, July 11, 2013-Sunday, July 21, 2013
Ten days of the roughest, sharpest, and smoothest of today’s cutting-edge Japanese film scene.
JAPAN CUTS is a diverse selection of the most notable recent films from Japan, giving New Yorkers a first look at blockbusters and cinematic landmarks from cutting-edge independents to highly innovative animations. In its seventh year, JAPAN CUTS is the only large-scale annual Japanese film festival in North America that brings a sizable slice of Japan's contemporary film scene to New York City.
Films screened between July 11–14 are co-presented with the New York Asian Film Festival, America's leading festival of popular Asian Cinema.
