Series - A Re-introduction to Ryusuke Hamaguchi
Touching the Skin of Eeriness
(Rysuke Hamaguchi, Japan, 2013, 54 min, in Japanese with English subtitles)
Following the death of his father, Chihiro abates his loneliness by practicing a unique, water-like form of modern dance with his friend Naoya in which the young mens hands and bodies intertwine with each other but never touch. Things take a strange turn when Naoyas girlfriend breaks up with him, setting off a sequence of events that leads to an unexplained tragedy at a nearby river. A prequel to an as-of-yet-unmade feature film, Touching the Skin of Eeriness offers more questions than it can answer, creating a powerfully evocative sense of mystery that finds Hamaguchi emphasizing mood and tone over dialogue or exposition.

Heaven Is Still Far Away
(Rysuke Hamaguchi, Japan, 2016, 38 min, in Japanese with English subtitles)
Yuzo shares his apartment with high schooler Mitsuki, with whom he hangs out between doing work as a censorship mosaic engineer for pornography. However, theres more to the duos seemingly odd partnership than is immediately apparent, and when a film student reaches out to Yuzo and proposes to interview him for a documentary about her dead sister, Yuzo is prompted to reveal Mitsukis secret. Originally made as a reward for contributors to the crowdfunding campaign of Hamaguchis 2016 film Happy Hour, this tender ghost story displays the directors penchant for investigating hidden emotions and blurring the lines between past and present.

Accesibilidad
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Executive Director Cara Mia Harris at caramia@nwfilmforum.org
