JAPANESE FILM FESTIVAL 2026: You Are the Film
The long-awaited directorial debut of Makoto Ueda, founder of the legendary Japanese theatre troupe “Europe Kikaku” and one of Japan’s most famous playwrights, who wrote the screenplays for such award-winning films as Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes, River, Summertime Machine Blues, The Night Is Short, Walk On Girl, Rewrite and many more! Madoka is a playwright in Shimokitazawa, Tokyo, and Kazuma is a band member in the neighboring town of Sangenjaya. One day, in their own separate lives they decide to go and see a movie at Tollywood, an independent cinema in Shimokitazawa. In the movie they each see, they see the other person on the screen. In other words, to Madoka, Kazuma is the "film," she is watching and to Kazuma, Madoka is the "film" he is watching. In this impossible structure, incidents occur within each other's stories, just like in a film. Kazuma and Madoka communicate through the screen and work hard to solve the problems that arise in each other’s story.
