[KineJapan] Uplink Kichijoji

[Japanese Cinema Discussion Forum via KineJapan]

Berlin kicked off last night. I’m here to premiere what you can call a
JapanUS coproduction, a film Soda Kazuhiro and I produced in Michigan last
year (The Big House).

But I’m writing for something else. Uplink formally announced its new mini
theater in Kichijoji. The last few years have been rough for mini-theaters,
and people were hearing deathknells. Apparently, many theaters survived the
year on a single blockbuster documentary. In this dark market, Uplink
optimistically built a new 5-screen complex on the Chuo-Line.

Frater reports, with a nice sketch:
