Nippon Connection 2023- The Daily Highlights (June 11th)

Festivals come and festivals go, but movies last forever, unless they are not properly protected and can be deleted from existence by soulless ghouls in suits (fight for film preservation!).

At Nippon Connection, at least, we still have a few movies and events left that aren’t sold out!

Special Events:

Panel Discussion: Between Extinction and New Rurality

As part of this year’s broader topic, CITYSCAPES AND COUNTRYSIDES, a panel-discussion will explore the dynamics in modern Japan between urbanism and rurality.

Performance: Magic Japan

Tatto OTA, based in Frankfurt, will show off just a few of the magic tricks he has honed over the course of his career. Entrance is free!

Kimono Fashion Show

Come to our fashion show to see some of the latest in kimono designs!

Film Premieres:

Double Life by Enen YO

The director’s debut film has its German premiere today!

VIPO Presents: Cityscanes and Countryside Shorts

A collection of unique shorts from independent artists, centered around our topical focus of this year’s festival.

Fantastic Imaginations: Indepedent Animated Shorts

This carefully selected collection of animated shorts is sure to astound! Come close out the festival in style!

Thanks for coming.
