Avantgarde Nippon: Kobo Abe x Hiroshi Teshigahara

Both giants of Japan's postwar avant-garde movement, author-screenwriter Kobo Abe and filmmaker Hiroshi Teshigahara worked together on several 1960s movies now considered classics of the Japanese New Wave. Asagaya cinema Laputa celebrates their oeuvre with a four-film programme, which includes 1964 Oscar nominee Woman in the Dunes, the duo's debut feature Pitfall (1962), The Face of Another (1966) and The Man Without a Map (1968).
