Kokuho (15), the highest grossing live-action Japanese film of all time, screens at QUAD - Derby from Friday.

“A wonderful demystification of a mysterious art form” – Time Out

Nagasaki, 1964 – After the death of his father, the leader of a yakuza gang, 14-year-old Kikuo is taken under the wing of a famous Kabuki actor. Alongside Shunsuke, the actor’s only son, he decides to dedicate himself to this traditional form of theatre.

SOMETHING NEW FROM SATORI SCREEN

After fourteen years of film screenings under the Satori Screen banner, I'm trying something new - a film course!

I have teamed up with Nathan Lunn, director of Geordie's Film Class and author of the forthcoming book They Come from Planet Earth!, for a one-day course at QUAD - Derby looking at kaiju cinema.

Nathan will be leading participants through examples of the genre (and showing plenty of clips) with particular focus on how the films can be linked to environmental theories.

The day will end of a big screen showing of the 1999 film Gamera 3: Revenge Of Iris (PG), with all course attendees able to see the film for free. (You can come along to the film at QUAD's regular ticket prices if not on the course).

This course runs 1pm - 4:30pm on Saturday 8 August, with the film screening taking place at 5:45pm. I thought this would be a fantastic curtain raiser ahead of Godzilla-A-Go-Go 3: Godzilla-A-Go-Go Raids Again! and hopefully some of you do too!

Full info can be found at https://www.derbyquad.co.uk/events/letthemfight/

Course fees: £25 (standard) or £22.50 (concessions). Tickets are now on sale.

Big thanks to everyone who came along to see Exit 8 at QUAD - Derby over the weekend. I'm always keen to hear what people think about what I have screened, so jump in the comments if you have any thoughts to share.

The next Satori Screen event is Satori Screen: Fudoh - The New Generation (18) on Friday 12 June at QUAD - Derby.

Fudoh is the utterly bonkers, gory and over-the-top teenage gangsters thriller made by Takashi Miike in 1996. I'm not aware of it ever screening in a UK cinema before (cannot swear to it though), so perhaps this is a 30 years late UK premiere?!

Tickets are now on sale via the QUAD website.
