CANADIAN PREMIERE

The hilarious, absurd and sometimes disturbing imagination of Yoshihiro Ito comes to life in this series of 5 short films. From a husband who is afraid of his wife and the mackeral that she’s going to cook for dinner, to a random meeting between a Western tourist and a mysterious dancer in downtown Tokyo, Ito’s films, which he writer, directs, and shoots himself, bring to mind the surreal antics of the grandfather of bad boy Japanese filmmakers, Seijun Suzuki.

Screening Time: Sunday, August 23rd @ 12:00 PM

Writer/ Director/ Yoshihiro Ito will be in attendance for a post-screening Q&A.
