Heso to genbaku

[baird at asianlan.umass.edu]

Dear Mathieu,

My sources are all butoh related because both Hijikata Tatsumi and Motofuji
Akiko helped with the shoot, but they give the date of Oct. 21-22, 1960 for the
premier at the "Jazz Eiga Jikkenshitsu" (Jazz Cinema Experimental Room), at the
Yurakucho Video Hall, which I didn't take as a film festival per se, but the
name of a program of experimental films and music. I'll see if I can find more
information if you want to contact me off list.

Best,

Bruce
