[KineJapan] The effects of Coved-19 on Japanese film & tv

[shota ogawa]

Hello everyone

There was a short segment on Cinema Skhole
<https://news.tv-asahi.co.jp/news_society/articles/000180950.html> in TV
Asahi news that apparently aired on April 3 (which I had missed, but now I
realize it might have been because of this coverage that there appeared to
be a larger turnout when I visited the following day)

There are also two campaigns focusing on small independent movie theaters.
Both of these offer a good way to keep supporting these vital institutions
short of attending their screenings (which is difficult of course even for
those of us in the region).
