Season The Japan Foundation Touring Film Programme 2025

A hilarious and energetic manga adaptation following inept rookie cop Reiji (Toma Ikuta), sent on a mission to infiltrate Sukiya-kai, Japan’s most notorious Yakuza clan. Directed by cult filmmaker Takashi Miike, who recently celebrated the release of his 100th film, Blade of the Immortal, this action comedy is not to be missed.

With diverse cinematic voices, The Japan Foundation Touring Film Programme 2018 features some of the best examples of cinema from Japan and will look at how the country’s filmmakers have been drawn to portraying the “(un)true” colours of human nature. The twists and turns of life portrayed in the programme are at times heart-rending, at other times hilarious, but always enthralling.
