- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 14 Apr, 2026 at 09:30 pm (-04:00)
- **Event Description**: In celebration of the 30th anniversary of THE MAIKU HAMA TRILOGY, we are presenting the Toronto Theatrical Premiere of the new restorations of each film from the trilogy! 

 

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, presented here from its new 4K restoration. (KANI RELEASING) 

 

When a hooded stranger appears in private eye 'Mike' Hama's office with the cryptic challenge "I want you to look for me," Hama is drawn into a string of bizarre serial murders that have Yokohama's police baffled and the city terrified.
