[KineJapan] Hybrid Festivals in New York

[William C. Thompson]

This year two significant festivals featuring recent Japanese films that
are generally held in New York in July were moved to August.  Both will be
presented in hybrid format with significant online portions available
across the US.  Please note COVID restrictions for all in-person
screenings.

The New York Asian Film Festival (NYAFF), celebrating its 20th edition,
runs from August 6 to 22, 2021.  In-person screenings will occur at the
Walter Reade Theater (Lincoln Center) and the SVA Theater (School for
Visual Arts).   The link for all Japanese titles is:
