Japanese films are known for their deep emotional resonance, minimalist aesthetics & non-linear narratives. They often tell powerful stories through silence, gesture & what remains unsaid; offering a unique experience unlike typical Western cinema.

This is more than just movie night, it's a window into the heart of Japanese culture. Come solo, bring a friend, or make it a whānau outing. We look forward to welcoming you!
