J-Sei Movie Night: A Japanese Love Story?
Friday, February 10, 6:30 pm (on Zoom)
It has become an annual J-Sei Movie Night tradition to celebrate February with a Japanese romantic movie. But is there actually such a thing as a Japanese love story with a happy ending? Does such a movie exist? Well, turns out this has proved to be a rather challenging and elusive quest, but we’ve tried to be diligent in our continuing hunt. Has our Valentine’s search finally been successful this year?!?
Join us and find out on Friday, February 10, at 6:30pm for a Japanese movie watch party and discussion on Zoom. (Movie tba.) RSVP to jill@j-sei.org with “Feb movie night” in the subject line to receive Zoom info prior to the event.
See you at the movies!
