NIPPON RETRO

Best of Nippon Connection 2000-2009

Year after year the Nippon Connection team takes a close look on Japans cinematic output and carefully sorts out the most promising titles. This years NIPON RETRO reviews some highlight films of the past nine festivals and thus offers the possibility to enjoy once more your favourites or finally discover those films you have missed in former years. Moreover, the retrospective gives an opportunity of viewing earlier works by some directors that are participating again this year.
