The Japanese Film Festival – Montreal – (May 23 and 24, 2025)

On May 23 and 24, the 41st edition of the Japanese Film Festival was held at the Cinémathèque québécoise, co-organized by the Consulate General of Japan in Montreal and the Japan Foundation, Toronto. All three films screenings were very well received. "Sansho the Bailiff", directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, deeply moved the viewers, some even shared that they “couldn’t stop crying”. We are pleased that the audience was able to gain a deeper understanding of Japan through a diverse selection of films. Thank you to everyone who attended!
