ONE SHOW ONLY!

Directed by Kinji Fukasaku

Starring Chiaki Kuriyama, Tatsuya Fujiwara, Tarô Yamamoto, Sôsuke Takaoka, Takashi Tsukamoto, Takeshi Kitano, Aki Maeda

Celebrate the 25th anniversary of visionary director Kinji Fukasaku’s Battle Royale with a new theatrical release in partnership with Iconic Events. This special screening is presented in 4K along with a new interview with the screenwriter — Kinji’s son Kenta — sharing an intimate look at the forces that shaped his father and how they inspired his final film.

Battle Royale is an intense and brutal story about Japanese high school students who are sent off by their government with three days to K*ll each other — until only one remains. With its blend of social commentary and high-stakes action, Battle Royale continues to influence modern dystopian storytelling and has inspired countless television shows, video games, and films, including the acclaimed The Hunger Games franchise.
