film screenings at NAGOYA CINEMATIQUE: Miyake Sho and Chris Marker






Nagoya Cinematique 名古屋シネマテーク (http://cineaste.jp/) : they have a great collection of film magazines too (in English, French and Japanese and more); a tiny library from which you could access lots of unthinkable documents. Strongly recommend.
