Himizu closes the Terracotta Film festival, which runs from 12-15th April at the Prince Charles Cinema in London, and I have reviewed over on Starburst Magazine. It is based on bestselling manga by Minoru Furuya and is Sion Sono's reaction to the Japanese earthquake and tsunami of 2011. Himizu is released by Third Window from 1st June in the UK.
My Way opens the festival on 12th April and is epic goodness, the wonderful Charlotte Linton has reviwed it here.
Monsters Club is also showing at the festival; I saw it last year at TIFF and although it was not what I was expecting it still has some visually original and stunning moments. You can read my thoughts on Cinetalk.
Third Window are also set to release Kotoko this year in the UK and I can only recommend this film. It is absolutely insane, disorientating and mesmerising.
I recently reviewed Adrift in Tokyo (out on DVD now) for the fab Filmoria another one I would recommend.
Full Programme for the festival here.
