Japan Cuts 2020, North America’s largest festival of contemporary Japanese cinema, returns for its unprecedented 14th edition as an entirely online experience.
Featuring a diverse slate of 30 feature films and 12 shorts—including studio blockbusters, independent productions, documentaries, restored classics, animation and avant-garde works—Japan Cuts 2020 offers unique access to the best new films from Japan with filmmaker video introductions, live virtual Q&As and panel discussions.
For the first time ever, Japan Cuts is expanding its reach beyond New York to audiences across the entire United States, maintaining the festival’s sense of community and dedication to intercultural communication.
During the 14-day festival period, you will be able to purchase and view all film selections on demand and on-the-go, with playback available through both the dynamic streaming website and iTunes & Android mobile apps. (The latter will be released with the festival launch in July.) Films will be available to rent with a limited number of virtual tickets per title.
Tickets go on sale starting Friday, July 10!
