Film Festival 2025 – Programme preview

The JAPAN SQUARE team is busy putting together the program for the 15th Japan-Square Film Festival. The selection is not yet completely finalized and all details are not yet fixed, but here is a preliminary overview of the films that have definitely been selected for screening:

• My Sunshine (2024) by Hiroshi Okuyama
• Shades of Indigo (2024) by Shigeru Yoshida
• Kanasando (2025) by Toshiyuki Teruya
• The Box Man (2024) by Gakuryu Ishii
• Let’s go karaoke! (2024) by Nobuhiro Yamashita
• Castle of Wind and Clouds (1928) by Toko Yamazaki
• The Friends (1994) van Shinji Somai
• Hakkenden: Fiction and Reality (2024) by Fumihiko Sori

We would like to thank our subsidizers and sponsors in advance. Without their support, the Japan-Square Film Festival would not be possible.
