Andaz Tokyo Special Program A
"Personality"
The film festival has collaborated with Andaz Tokyo for its 1st anniversary, and a special screening event has been confirmed! We will present two programs focusing on "personal style" and "indigenous," elements of the Andaz concept. One program will be centered on unique international films about "personality," and the other will introduce the Tokyo locale and Japanese culture to international tourists.
