What's On In Edinburgh 2009

Showing at Filmhouse
4 September - 26 October
NAGISA OSHIMA
22 films by the great director who is best known in the West for his erotic masterpiece In the Realm of the Senses and his David Bowie vehicle Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence and widely considered the most important figure in Japanese cinema since the classical era of Mizoguchi, Ozu, and Kurosawa. Complex and audacious, perennially iconoclastic, vigorously mixing violence, eroticism, politics, and self-reflexivity, Oshima's films represent a crucial link between modernism and non-western modes of perception.
