There's also some PIA Fest' shorts, screened at the Berlin film market (i guess access is limited to professional & curators)

Whie I have seen and enjoyed one (or maybe two) films directed by Minoru Shibuya (a director who started his career working with Ozu at Shochiku), I've never seen any of the ones being shown in Berlin. I would be particularly interested in Radishes and Carrots, which was a project Ozu started before he became incapacitated by cancer. This film (starring lots of Ozu's regular performers) was sort of a farewell tribute (finished the year after Ozu died).

I reported on my blog about the film industry statistics that Eiren just released. 

http://www.aarongerow.com/news/2010-film-industry-statisti.html 

Basically, it was a record setting year for total BO, and the best attendance figures since 1974. Japanese films again beat foreign films, but multiplexes continue to take over, leaving independent theaters in danger.
