Naomi Kawase
Kawase continues to make films in Nara, where she was born and raised. She has received multiple awards at prestigious international film festivals including Cannes Film Festival, with her pursuit of "reality" which is beyond the border between documentary and fiction. Her brand new feature "Vision" (starring Juliet Binoche and Masatoshi Nagase) will be released theatrically from June 8th. In 2010, she founded Nara International Film Festival, dedicated to promoting the work of young filmmakers.
It will be held in September 10-24, 2018. Also the exhibition dedicated for Kawase will be held from November 23 at Ponpidou Center, Paris.
