The government of Japan plans to organise a film festival this
month to introduce the most typical Japanese films to the public in Ho
Chi Minh City.
Entitled Blow, New Wind! Japanese Film and
Animation 2013, the festival will screen 30 movies with Vietnamese
subtitle in celebration of the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations
between Vietnam and Japan.
According to the Japan
General Consulate in the city, the festival, the largest ever, will be
organised between November 15 and November 21.
Besides showing
popular movies including Oshin and Wolf Children, works by young
Japanese will also be featured during the festival.
Before each movie is screened, producers of cartoons and directors from Japan will speak with audiences.-VNA
