Fine entertainment, food for thought, five world premieres and at least a touch of Japanese wackiness and warmth – this is what awaits the audience with around 80 current Japanese short and feature-length films of the 21st Nippon Connection Film Festival. After weeks of hoping and worrying, it is now certain that unfortunately the pandemic will not allow in-theater screenings in 2021 either. The largest festival for Japanese cinema worldwide will once again be held exclusively online from June 1 to 6, 2021.
The 2020 NIFFF selection consists of 20 features that best represent the global state of fantastic films, and which have never been shown in Switzerland. Designed to maintain the diversity of cinematic offerings in these uncertain times for the industry, this programme includes 17 new films and 3 movies that are part of our traveling Fantastique 20 20 20 retrospective. All films will be shown in their original version, with French and German subtitles. Only people connecting from Switzerland will be able to stream them. Although it is impossible to organise a traditional, physical edition this year, the NIFFF feels it is important to offer its audience an overview of the cinematic dreams and nightmares of the present day.
A revolutionary edition that will take place entirely online on MYmovies.it from June 26 to July 4!
A line-up of 46 films (including 4 world premieres) and a ton of other content. Things kick off on June 26 with Korean action movie Ashfall.
