- **Event Name**: The Trap (New Restoration) 
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 29 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Wed, 29 Apr, 2026 at 09:00 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: Launched to stardom by Jim Jarmusch’s Mystery Train (1989), enigmatic actor Masatoshi Nagase thrives as the hardboiled detective wannabe Maiku Hama in Kaizo Hayashi’s trilogy of the same name, encompassing The Most Terrible Time in My Life (1993), The Stairway to the Distant Past (1995) and The Trap (1996). Stomping through the bustling-and-hustling port city of Yokohama, Hama operates out of a run-down movie theatre and his office sees every kind of customer: from rich ladies looking for runaway pups to serial murderers who look suspiciously like himself… Equal part American hardboiled detective pastiche, Seijun Suzuki-style Nikkatsu akushon send-up, and Masatoshi Nagase’s own new school comedic charmer, the Maiku Hama Trilogy is a cult phenomena of 90s Japanese cinema.

Closing out the trilogy is The Trap in which Nagase stars in a memorable double role. When a string of young women in floral dresses are found dead, alarms are sounded throughout Yokohama about the possibility of a serial killer on the loose. But when all evidence points to Hama, he has to fight against the clock and former allies, putting his trust in a rookie cop and his trusted sidekick Hoshino. Will Hama escape the trap? (Kaizo Hayashi, Japan, 1996, 106 min) In Japanese with English subtitles
