13:45 on Fri.,March 21 11:00 on Sat.,March 22 City Hall Salon ”Work outline 2007/JAPANESE(with ENGLISH subtitles)/21min ”Introduction In a meat shop in a half-deserted shopping center, a woman is pounding pork tenderloin, making it just the right thickness for cutlets. Pounding! And pounding! The pounding beat gets faster and louder, and the earth starts to tremble. This is an amusing film, expressing the feelings of a woman with sounds with a completely new style and approach. It is another version of "Carne" by a woman director. The film, ambitiously directed, invokes the instincts of the viewers. It will for certain become a cult hit. ”MESSAGE I myself have not fully digested this film. When I began shooting it, I had intended to end it with a clear statement, but I got stuck in the rut of the entangling, emotional man-woman relationship, so now, I would like to ask each and every person who has seen the movie whether the ending was happy or sad. I am honored to have been invited to show my film at the Yubari Film Festival. This will be my first time to participate, and I am very much looking forward to it. ”Staff [director] TSUKI INOUE [cinematographer] YOUSUKE OMORI [lighting director] SHOHEI FUKAYA [sound recording] [production manager] MADOKA KUMAGAI ”Cast GRACE SOHKOH WADA REI SHIBAKUSA JUN NAGAMI SHINOBU KAWAI RINAKO HIRASAWA ”Profile of the director
