Hello everyone,

I've been trying to track down an academic article that was published in
2007 on *Ringu* in the *Asian Journal of Literature, Culture, and Society*,
but haven't had any luck with my university library. Even the ILL office
says that they aren't able to locate it. Has anyone read this article, or
know where it's possible to access it?:

Message-ID: <B15DC525-866A-4602-8182-02D0053E0540@yale.edu>

The one-of-a-kind artist Kanai Katsu has passed away. I had heard about it from his family a number of weeks ago (he died on April 22), but only just noticed that the news has hit the newspapers. Kanai-san was a Nichigei graduate who first worked at Daiei before going independent. While making TV documentaries, he also made groundbreaking indie films exploring sexual and ethnic identity such as Mujin retto and Good-Bye (both of which we showed at Yale in 2009 when he visited us). One of my favorite memories was watching his Super Documentary: The Avant-Garde Senjutsu at Yamagata with Ian. Kanai was always a playful (he ways playing with computer images in that work), and the six-year old Ian loved it. And Kanai-san loved that Ian loved it. RIP.

 Red Outlaw: Adachi Masao and Japan's Cinema of Revolution

Dear all,

If you will forgive the shameless self-promotion, my book Pink Auteur, Red Outlaw: Adachi Masao and Japan's Cinema of Revolution is published by Awai Books on September 1.

It is the first critical biography of Adachi. As some of you know, the book has been a labour of love ongoing since 2016 and it is something of a miracle that it is finally published. Over the years, I have received generous support from various people on this mailing list.

Given my background and past publications, I approached the topic more as a cultural historian than a film researcher, and drew on primary sources and secondary scholarship in four languages, plus interviews with Adachi.

Unfortunately, we didn't receive permission to use stills, but the book is wonderfully designed with original illustrations and a fun cover. Publication is somewhat bittersweet, because Adachi himself has misunderstood the book as a kind of hatchet job or attempt to exploit him, which is very much not the case, as I am confident anyone reading in good faith will see. I share this "behind-the-scenes" gossip only because I am aware that several people on this list know Adachi personally. Sadly, I am no longer in contact with him.

An officially endorsed anthology of translations of Adachi is due at the end of the year, so my publication is a more punkish upstart, so to speak. I may venture to say that this is quite in keeping with the spirit of underground cinema.

MIT Press Bookstore<https://mitpressbookstore.mit.edu/book/9781937220129>

I'm not done with Adachi quite yet. His early work also features in my PhD dissertation, another long-in-gestation project, but one I hope won't take me ten years to complete.

Kind regards,

Hello everyone,

My name is Maria, and I'm about to start my PhD under the supervision of
Professor Lorenzo Torres, who is also a member of this forum.
I am planning to research guilt and compassion in Yasujir? Ozu's film Tokyo
Story (T?ky? Monogatari).
Does anyone know if there is any research on this specific topic, or could
you recommend any studies that address these themes?

Thanks in advance,

Subject: [KineJapan] NFAJ cuts
Message-ID: <51A23DFA-B453-4B40-81B1-8D557E224ABD@yale.edu>

The Japanese government has cut the budget for the National Film Archive of Japan by 40% for this fiscal year, asserting that the NFAJ has to earn more of its budget on its own. There are many problems with this. While Japan is now clearly rejecting a European model of public funding, its attempt to embrace a neoliberal model of private funding for public institutions won?t work until they revamp the tax code (Japanese tex law does not provide for the same kind of tax breaks for donations that US law does). The NFAJ will now have to pursue extreme cost cutting. 

It has also announced it will try to make up some of the loss through crowd funding. They are aiming for 100 million yen (about 620,000 dollars). Here's the link:

 After the disastrous closure of Chiyoda's National Theatre of Japan, yet another reminder of how low the presence and preservation of art fares in the government's current agenda.In the meantime, funded with TAXPAYERS' money... "The government-backed Cool Japan Fund has cost taxpayers 140.6 billion yen ($937 million USD) in directly contributed capital, while approving 83 separate cultural investments totalling 204 billion yen ($1.36 billion USD) since its launch in 2013."

Hello.?I am currently teaching Japanese Cinema History and Japanese Pop Culture at Kwansei Gakuin University in Japan, where I reside.Some of the people in this list already know about my interest regarding director Hiroshi Shimizu.I am aIso a huge collector of anything related to his work and have been doing research for a number of years which I hope to publish soon. This time I am contacting you to inform about a crowdfunding project to digitise one of his films: Children of the Great Buddha.
The idea is to digitise the film so that it can be better preserved, shown more often in Nara and elsewhere and donate a copy to Todaiji Temple, the main location of the film.You can read all the necessary information on the page:https://readyfor.jp/projects/daibutsusama-kodomotachi/announcementsI also contributed a small essay in English regarding the film available in the????? Activity Report section.Considering that the National Film Archive of Japan just started its own crowdfunding campaignafter the government dramatically slashed its financial support by over 40%, it is of the utmost importance that initiatives like this highlight people's will to preserve their film history for future generations and expose the national institutions lack of interest and foresight in preserving one of the world's most important cinema cultures.Whatever financial contribution and/or media publicity will be invaluable, especially taking into account the current situation.Thank you so much in advance.

There is Tsuchimoto?s prison diary, though it is more daily rumination on political issues. 

According to the Eiga shiryokanroku, the Noda Kogo archive has his diaries, and Hiroshima has some of Shindo Kaneto?s diaries.

Call for Papers

International Symposium


?Film, Screens and Media in Japan: Negotiating Legitimations and Legacies?

University of Lorraine, Metz (France), 4-5 March 2027


The Research Center on Expertises, Arts and Transitions (CREAT) and the University of Lorraine, with the support of the Universit? de Gen?ve, the Lyon Institute of East Asian Studies (IAO) and the Laboratory for Aesthetics, Science and Technologies of Cinema and TV (ESTCA), will hold an international symposium in Metz on 4?5 March 2027 in Japanese Studies, Film Studies and Humanities entitled ?Film, Screens and Media in Japan: Negotiating Legitimacies and Legacies?. The symposium invites contributions around four main themes :


I - Genre, Formats, and Filmic objects



Here, we invite contributors to discuss the boundaries of what constitutes a research object when studying film, be it from a material or aesthetic standpoint, especially in Japan. To what extent do Japanese filmic forms challenge classifications and methods ?


  *   Relationship between film and other media

  *   Dominant and alternative formats

  *   Seriality, franchises and multiple instances

  *   Adaptations, re-use and (self)-remakes

  *   Formation and historical evolution of genres and industrial categories

  *   Historical evolution and transformations of categories or formats

  *   Definition criteria of film in industrial fields, heritage practice and aesthetic practice

  *   Platforms, video and new industry actors

  *   Characters, actors, idols, stars

  *   Amateur and commercial works


II - Cultural practice, consumption practice and film practice


Practices of film production and consumption in Japan seem to be more readily determined by industrial dynamics and consumption practices. To what extent do these practices, be it of production or of consumption, determine the legitimation of filmic objects in Japan as a whole ?


  *   Professional trajectories across artistic practices and media

  *   Media industries, the studio system and production structures

  *   Interaction and influences within and across media (film, literature, music?)

  *   Industrial groups and their action on shaping the industry

  *   Mainstream and alternative practices of consuming and producing media

  *   Constitution and evolution of audiences

  *   (Self) definition of audiences: age, gender, class, geography, interests

  *   Popular culture, consumer culture, transmedia culture

  *   Transformative cultures and fandoms

  *   Transnational flows and exchanges

  *   Objects and mechanisms of consumption : narrativity, seriality, database, character vs. world


III - Discourses, Institutions, Policies


Here, contributors are invited to discuss the contexts, structures, and terminologies of critical, institutional and political discourses legitimating filmic objects in Japan. What groups, what interests, and what strategies are employed in these discourses, whether central or peripheral  ?


  *   National and international festivals

  *   Discourses around ?Japan? and ?Japanese cinema?

  *   Contexts and practices of commercial and non-commercial film criticism

  *   Translation, adaptation, localization

  *   Terminology, technical lexicon and their evolution

  *   Legitimation through cultural institutions, inside and outside Japan

  *   Transnational approaches, cultural collaboration, and soft-power

  *   Definition, objectives and motivations of film policy

  *   Education and propaganda through films and other media

  *   Auteur and auteurism

  *   Authorship, copyright and their understanding

  *   Heritage policies


IV - Methods, Theories, Sources


In this section, we welcome discussions on methodological issues (including those related to fieldwork) and multidisciplinary approaches. To what extent does the context of films in Japan invite questions about existing approaches and theories of film and media ?


  *   Academically ?legitimate? practices and their strategies of legitimation

  *   Established approaches and innovative approaches

  *   Soft power, national culture and (self-)orientalism

  *   Positionality and research ethics

  *   Area studies, language and social barriers

  *   Access to fieldwork, documents and archives, public or private

  *   Research programs, cultural institutions, state incentives

  *   Archives, intermediate objects, selecting objects of study

  *   Non institutional documentation : oral history, community resources

  *   Constituting and aggregating sources : film credits, databases, etc.

  *   Historiography and periodization

  *   Transmission, exhibition and trade in of objects of knowledge

  *   Loss, destruction, alteration or rediscovery of sources and objects

  *   Digital Humanities and online resources

  *   Genre analysis as method: categorising criteria and their limits

Presenters will have 20 minutes to present their paper in English, followed by 10 minutes of questions.

The symposium will be hosted by the Research Center on Expertises, Arts and Transitions (CREAT) at the University of Lorraine in Metz. A limited number of online presentations may be possible for presenters travelling from outside Europe. The symposium may lead to the publication of an edited  volume.

We will cover hotel accommodation for all in-person presenters. We have a limited budget for travel support, prioritised for PhD students and early-career researchers without institutional travel funding, followed by presenters travelling within Europe with limited institutional support. Travel from outside Europe cannot be covered, but we are happy to provide formal invitation letters to support funding applications at presenters? home institutions. Please indicate in your application if you wish to be considered for travel support, with a brief note on your funding situation.
