We screened a diverse selection of shorts, one of which was “SHARE,” a film that addresses the contemporary issue of non-consensual porn through the story of one high school girl and was awarded the Cannes Cinéfondation Competition top prize. Another was “Helium,” the heartwarming story of a hospitalized boy and a janitor, which won the Academy Awards® Best Short Film (Live Action) in 2014. All attendees seemed to enjoy the variety of films. Tomorrow, four days of screenings will begin at Tokyo Metropolitan Museum in Ueno. Here there will be many more films screening, all free of charge, so please be sure to come along!
