Fwd: [CJS_EVENT_ANNOUNCEMENT] Tsuchimoto Noriaki Tribute Screening 4/17

[Quentin Turnour]

Hi Mark, 

It doesn't seem likely, but are these screening on film? Be curious to 
know if so; been driving myself mad trying to access and sort rights out 
on a subtitled film screening print of ON THE ROAD for quite some time 
now...

The UCLA Terasaki Center for Japanese Studies
& Dept. of Film, Television, and Digital Media present
 
Tsuchimoto Noriaki Tribute Screening
Minamata: The Victims and Their World (1971)
On the Road: A Document (1964)
 
Friday April 17, 2009
7 – 10:30 PM
UCLA Melnitz Hall, Room 2534
 

 
This screening event honors the late Japanese documentary filmmaker and 
social activist Tsuchimoto Noriaki (1928-2008). Tsuchimoto’s “Minamata 
Series” is known for its powerful screen portrayals of the lives and 
struggles of the victims of Minamata disease. The series greatly helped to 
restore human rights for the victims by directing global attention to the 
corporate and state negligence involved in the industrial pollution of the 
seawater near Minamata, which was the direct cause of the disease. 
Tsuchimoto’s other important works illuminated marginalized social issues 
stemming from Japan’s postwar economic growth. 
 
We will screen Minamata: The Victims and Their World (1971), Tsuchimoto’s 
first feature film in the Minamata Series, followed by a discussion and On 
the Road: A Document (1964), one of his early films about the endangerment 
of public safety in the city of Tokyo during the rapid urban development 
leading up to the Tokyo Olympic.
