This year's festival is themed around youth counterculture and protest movements. We're showing five New Wave classics that look at youth movements in the 1950s/60s. These are paired with four contemporary experimental short films that examine protest and/or youth culture in present day Japan. <br></div><div><br></div><div>The program is as follows:<br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);
