CALL FOR ENTRIES!!! - Tokyo Cinemasters International Film Festival

ABOUT US:

Through discovering films and directing talent from across the globe, TOKYO CINEMASTERS INT'L FILM FESTIVAL was founded with the mission of developing the next generation of cinema. 

Japan loves all cinema, regardless of country, language, or race.

The culture of watching films with subtitles is well established here, with releases from a multitude of nations each year. 

 

However, the majority of those releases are limited to commercial movies.  The reality is that there are a wealth of fantastic overseas directors and films lying dormant that we’re never exposed to. The lack of “international” film festivals in Japan has also been an issue.

 

Based in Tokyo, a place where new and diverse booms are born, this festival brings together films and people active on a global stage. 

A festival where you can see cinematic work that cross boundaries of race and language.
