Contemporary Japanese Auteurs: Dark Harbour (12A) S
Dir: Takatsugu Naito
Cast: Kazuki Hiro-oka, Shinya Kote, Akaji Maro, Yuko Miyamoto 101 mins, 2009, Japan, Subtitled
Please note: this was screened in March 2012
Manzo is a lonely fisherman who spends most of his days dreaming of finding a woman he can spend the rest of his life with. While recording a video for a dating agency, he makes an unusual discovery: he finds a pair of secret squatters, a mother and son, living in his closet. Can he find love - literally - in his own home and get the companionship he so desperately craves? Infectiously warm and full of deadpan, slapstick comedy, Dark Harbour gets you hooked from start to finish.
Fee: £7.20 full / £5.60 concessions.
