Earth and People Film Festival

Last year, a historic former elementary school in rural Kyoto hosted an all-night outdoor film festival that drew 600 people. This year, the event’s growing bigger. Aside from screening both Japanese and foreign modern classics – including the 2008 comedy ‘Handsome Suit’ and the 2016 Oscar-winning rom-com musical ‘La La Land’– the festival will also feature attractions including a ball pit, haunted house and a sky lantern release event. Oh, there will be ample stalls too, hawking local street food.
