<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><font size="3">This is not exclusively
Japanese film related, but I just wanted to let everyone know that the 8<sup>th</sup>
Asia House Film Festival will be taking place in London at the end of this
month, from 22<sup>nd</sup> Feb to 5<sup>th</sup> March, with most of the
screenings at the newly reopened Regent Street Cinema, the birthplace of cinema
in the United Kingdom, with a day devoted to “Singaporeana”, or
British/American productions of the 1960s-70s set in Singapore and panel
discussion happening on 5 March at the Cinema Museum.<o:p></o:p></font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><o:p><font size="3"> </font></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><font size="3">The full details of the
programme can be seen here:<o:p></o:p></font></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><font size="3">And to whet your appetite,
the festival trailer can be viewed here: </font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><font size="3">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wj7E31sacqs<o:p></o:p></font></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><font size="3">The Japan-related aspects of
the programme include Shunji Iwai’s first anime, <i>The Case of Hana and Alice</i> (<i>Hana
to Alice satsujin jiken</i>) and the short film <i>Panchagavya</i> by New York-based Hana Kitasei, shot in India.<o:p></o:p></font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><o:p><font size="3"> </font></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><font size="3">Elsewhere there are plenty of
films from other countries less well-represented on the world stage, including <i>Mina Walking</i> from Afghanistan, <i>The Monk</i> from Myanmar, <i>40 Days of Silence </i>from Uzbekistan, <i>Factory Boss</i> from China, and <i>Stranger </i>and <i>Little Brother </i>- two wonderful works from one of my most exciting
discoveries in years, the Kazakh director Yermek Tursunov.<o:p></o:p></font></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><o:p><font size="3"> </font></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); background: white;"><font size="3">Also I should draw attention
to the highly enjoyable <i>Seoul Searching</i>,
by Korean-American director Benson Lee, a wonderful teen movie set in the
summer of 1986 and featuring a diverse group of Korean teenagers from around
the world who arrive in Seoul to take part in a special summer camp where they
have been sent by their parents to learn what it truly means to be Korean.
There’s going to be a special themed party for all ticket holders to this movie
after the screening.<o:p></o:p></font></span></p>
