Book on Somai Shinji

[Petra Palmer]

Dear Aaron Gerow and hello to the list,

I take the opportunity with this mail this mail to introduce myself to the
list which I am following for a while. My apologies for the omission.

Since 2008 I am part of the Nippon Connection Film Festival in Frankfurt
and after being in charge for the press and public relations, my interest
in Japanese film and culture gave me the way to focus on the film
programming.

This year I had the chance to attend Tokyo FILMeX for the first time and to
see some of the fantastic Shinji Somai films unfortunately some of them
without subtitles. I researched for DVDs with English subs without any
results yet. Does possibly anybody heard or knows about DVD releases with
subtitles in English or even Spanish or French? I am very thankful for any
information.

Thank you very much

Best

Petra Palmer
