It is with these things in mind that the Nara International Film Festival will release our Treasure Hunt Project “TREHUNJECT” Pt. 1 and 3.11 A Sense of Home Films on June 5th.
What is 3.11 A Sense of Home Films?
After the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, the Nara International Film Festival contacted many directors from around the world, such as Victor Erice (The Spirit of the Beehive) and Bong Joon-ho (Parasite), etc., and gathered works from a variety of famous artists. With each one being 3 minutes, 11 seconds long, we have connected all 21 of these contributions into one unified film.
Though it was created nine years ago, by releasing 3.11 A Sense of Home Films on our homepage again today, all of us who are enchanted by our love of film can overcome this test that COVID-19 has brought us, and all of our worlds can connect once more.
