DISTANT VOICES is playing Milwaukee tonight & tomorrow at UWM Union Cinema (no tix online, just come in person) and in Philly tomorrow at Asian Arts Initiative (pay what you want). I’ll be at Philly to give the intro; that screening is co-presented with @CollabJapanFilm ✨
Hikaru Suzuki’s GOD AND FATHER AND ME (2008) is a personal documentary about Suzuki’s own father, who left home to become a spiritual healer caught between “believing in God and becoming God himself.”
Available on CCJ until 12/1!

This November we’re delighted to present a focus on filmmaker Hikaru Suzuki with GOD AND FATHER AND ME (2008) and Anrakuto (2011), experimental works that investigate the family as a complex of intimacies, expectations and deviations.

Last chance to get your infectious dose of Yōji Kuri on CCJ!
What Do You Think? depicts the modern mind — flitting between media (found footage, animation, stop motion) as quickly as topics (sex, news, war).
Huge thanks to @matsu_fusako and @yojikuri.

Sawako Gōda was an artist interviewed by Yōji Kuri in 1973, whose artworks had a distinctly Gothic sensibility — from painted eggs to sculptures made from horse bone.
Enjoy this fascinating insight into Gōda’s work and life, now on CCJ! 🦋 @matsu_fusako
