“From a modest audience of around 500 at the first festival, this popular event has grown into a staple of the arts calendar with a projected audience of up to 10,000 this year,” said the NSW Minister for the Arts, Ms Judge said.

“Whether they reflect the Japanese love of beauty in all things, or present a more challenging experience, all of the 22 films in the festival offer a fascinating insight into a richly nuanced culture,” said Ms Judge.
