Much adored by the people of the Far East Film Festival, who over the years have applauded the two “Thermae Romae” and “Fly Me to the Saitama”, Takeuchi Hideki will therefore return to Udine to present “Cells at Work!” a colossal triumph of creative freedom and, currently, the phenomenon of the Japanese box office (at the time of writing, it has already exceeded 5 million spectators). A hilarious and flamboyant, adventurous and, at times, moving live action, produced by Warner Bros. Japan and set “inside” a student and her widowed father. Indeed: inside, without quotes, because the true superstars of Cells at Work! they are the 37 trillion cells that make their vital system work! In particular, a female red blood cell (Nagano Mei) and a male white blood cell (the star Satoh Takeru), ready to fight against any pathogen and, perhaps, also ready to fall in love…
On the occasion of announcing “Cells at Work!” as the very first title of the 2025 line-up, the Far East Film Festival 27 also reminds us that the accreditation campaign is in full swing. In fact, until Monday 3 March, it will be possible to purchase your Red Panda or White Tiger accreditation online (also in the Under 26 version) with a special Early Bird rate. New for 2025 is the Under 18 accreditation, dedicated to cinema enthusiasts between the ages of 16 and 18 who have not yet turned 18. Detailed information on the website HERE.
