Ann Arbor is locked down, but the festival goes on via Vimeo streaming. The
image quality is excellent and they are still doing Q and As!

I had put together a program of early Taiwanese experimental film with Wood
Lin

Unfortunately, that was cancelled. But the main competition is still on.
Dip in any time of the day or night between now and next Sunday!

++++++++++++++

There are a few East Asian films:

Im Cheol-min's Glow Job starts in about half and hour and comes highly
recommended.

Wednesday at 6:00 (Eastern Time)
Scar (Leilei Xia, Guangzhou, China | 2020)

Friday at 6:00
There Were Four of Us (Cassie Shao, Hangzhou, China)
The Ride (Huh Hyunjung, Seoul, Republic of Korea)

Saturday at 6:00
Tokyo Story (Hal Torii, Shibuya, Japan)
Leaking Life (Shunsaku Hayashi, Osaka, Japan | 2019)

Oh, and Shelly Silver has a film shot in Japan, a tiny place that is hard
to touch (Friday at 2:00).

++++++++++++++

Some of the people on KineJapan are familiar with Akiyama Tamako, the
scholar of Chinese doc in Japan and a Yamagata regular since the early 90s.
Her high school-aged enfant terrible is the Hal Torii of Tokyo Story—it's
surely as far from Ozu as humanly imaginable. Well, it'd have to be. It's
Ann Arbor Film Festival.
