JAPAN CUTS RETURNS

Japan Society is proud to announce the return of JAPAN CUTS: Festival of New Japanese Film!
JAPAN CUTS is the largest showcase of contemporary Japanese cinema in North America and an annual highlight of New York’s cinema scene. It plays host to international premieres, major celebrities, rising stars, and a passionate filmgoer community.



JAPAN CUTS was launched by Japan Society in 2007, and this year will be its 16th edition, marking the first full in-person JAPAN CUTS since 2019. We’re excited to bring New York’s Japanese movie fans back together!
From July 26-August 6, this year’s JAPAN CUTS will present over 25 films. Full details and tickets coming in June.
