Japanese Film Festival 2006
Japanese Film Festival will be screening in Penang from 21st until 24th September.
At the Japanese Film Festival 2006, we are screening a wide range of films from human drama to comedy, suspense to romance, and all of them were produced between 2002 and 2004. So, it’s a rare opportunity for Malaysians to catch all those new Japanese films at one time! Also good news for Ultraman fans! “ULTRAMAN: The Next” will be screened as well.
This film festival is definitely worthy and not to be missed!
