About Japan Foundation Touring Film Programme

Listed Under Film Events

In a world where injustice runs rampant, cinematic expressions of justice seem inexhaustible: time and time again, heroic protagonists fend off malicious antagonists or enact their revenge, the constant injustices they face mirroring audiences’ own. Japan is no exception to this, and the JFTFP25 promises to showcase how Japanese filmmakers use the language of cinema to explore the concepts of criminal, social, and moral justice, along with the ways people respond to external judgement. Featuring everything from thought-provoking hidden gems to laugh-a-minute entertainment, UK audiences are invited to join us in questioning the very concepts of justice, justification, and judgement against today’s backdrop of ever-changing values and perspectives.

The Japan Foundation Touring Film Programme 2025 takes place in Edinburgh from 6 - 31 March 2025

06 March - We Make Antiques!, Time TBC
13 March - Let's Go Karaoke!, Time TBC
20 March - The Inugami Family, Time TBC
24 March - In the Wake, Time TBC
27 March - (Ab)normal Desire, Time TBC
31 March - To Mom, With Love, Time TBC
