KOBE documentary FILM festival 2009


I only just realized, right this minute, that the yellow in this flyer are actually hands enclosing the perfect photograph. How clever. I was focusing on the actual photos and text. Like that old lady/young lady image I was shown again by a teacher the other night,


or the duck/rabbit picture that trains you to look beyond what you see.


Is that a hidden message I wonder for the first ever Kobe Documentary Film Festival which is currently on for 3 more days; September 23, 26 and 27. Each day has four films showing, so perhaps something will grab your mood even though this post is quite late.

All the films are in Japanese (with no subtitles), but I am sure there are many of you who have POW-WOW blow-me-away Japanese, or those who themselves are into making documentary films, that the meaning will just soak in sweetly and deeply.

Tickets are 1000 yen (pre-sale), or 1300 yen on the day per movie.

Check out the (Japanese) website for more details on:
