Tokyo Gay and Lesbian Film Festival

[Mark Nornes]

The way they are showing this sounds absolutely fascinating: male and  
female benshi to see how the POV changes the film!  Wish I was there,  
and not only to see Sawato-san and Yanashita-san. And if Kataoka is  
Sawato's deshi, I'm sure he's good.
