I wish I could get there ...  Perhaps they could suggest it for the Japan Foundation for screenings abroad ?

Incidentally, in the link :-
"[NOTE] the Ainu language has no written alphabet. When using the English alphabet to write Ainu words, the " - the English don't start to write their language, with the Roman alphabet, until centuries after the fall of the western Roman Empire. If the Ainu use the Roman alphabet, they are doing so just as authentically as the English. Possibly more so, in respect of the letter 'c'.

  Dear all, 



  I thought some list members might be interested in the screening of this documentary about Ainu population living in Tokyo.
