Opening Film: In This Corner of the World

November 3rd 12:30, Theater 1


Written by the award-winning manga artist Fumiyo Kono and directed by Sunao Katabuchi (Mai Mai Miracle), this heart-warming story, supported by crowd-funding, took six years of research with the help of the Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall in in order to meticulously recreate a lively city that would otherwise be impossible to see today. Our heroine Suzu is so realistically depicted, it is hard to believe she is a fictional character. How she manages to lead a normal life in such a situation is sure to teach all generations a thing or two about bravery. The festival holds an advanced screening before its theatrical release that starts from Nov 12th, 2016.

SYNOPSYS

Suzu, in 1944, moves to the small town of Kure in Hiroshima to live with her husband’s family. Suzu’s life is thrown into chaos when her town is bombed during World War II. Her perseverance and courage, however, underpin this heart-warming and inspirational tale of the everyday challenges faced by the Japanese in the midst of a violent, war-torn country.
