Postwar Docs at Higashi Nakano Box

[Aaron Gerow]

Speaking of BOX Higashi Nakano, I heard the other day that the current 
ownership will be stepping down due to financial difficulties. The 
theater will probably continue to exist, but most likely in another form.

The economic downturn thus seems to be affecting the film industry. I 
have also heard that the Kyoto Film Festival, which ran once every two 
years, has folded too.
