[KineJapan] Tokyo Film Festival and FilmEx

[Gerow Aaron]

The Tokyo Film Festival announced that they would not be holding a competition this year, in part because it's not sure jurors could travel to Japan. They have also instituted changes in its programming process, as now there will be a selection committee with outside members. Finally, TIFF will finally link up with Tokyo FilmEx, which will now be held at the same time. FilmEx will become like the Director's Fortnight at Cannes: independently run, but aligned with the big festival. Ichiyama Shozo of FilmEx will serve on the TIFF selection committee.
