[KineJapan] TIFF awards

[Markus Nornes]

What a great thing for Mori!  And he barely thinks of himself as a
filmmaker (he’s being both modest and wrong there). This must be driving
Hara crazy, considering he was deeply disappointed at the dearth of awards
for Sennin Disaster. But he really needs to get his running times under
control.

By the way, check out the bragging rights numbers at the bottom. They
apparently had nearly 300,000 people at various events like the red carpet
etc. but only 65,000 tickets to the films. 🤔
