[KineJapan] Kinema Junpo Best Ten 2024

[William C. Thompson]

For those in the New York area who are interested, Namibia no Sabaku (#2 on
the KJ list) will play in Queens as part of the Museum of the Moving
Image's First Look 2025 series on Thursday, March 13th, at 8:15 PM.  I
believe it will be on MoMI's smaller screen.
