A message of support from actress Yoshino Kimura
A message of support from actress Yoshino Kimura, presenter of the Ladies for Cinema Project
In these very difficult times, it brings me great joy to see the filmmakers who give us hope, the motivation to explore new means of expression, & once again participate in this film festival. These short films made by these women filmmakers give us courage & power. It would be wonderful if we are able to spread this incredible message to all
Ladies for Cinema Project- The films will be released online on 09/16.
Yoshino Kimura’s talks about “Mother, Flower.”
“The film grabs you with its very delicate depiction of the problems that confront women after giving birth. But I felt that the gentle, tender way the family tries to support her at times also bring out a bitterness as well.”
