Why You Should Visit

A film festival at Takarazuka Cine Pipia, a small cinema right by Mefu-jinja Station, screening films shot at the former Takarazuka Film Studio and around the Hanshin area. This 27th edition marks 75 years since the studio was re-established, and over seven days it shows 13 films: classics made at the studio's new stages, including the comedies and Aku no Monsho, a special on the 140th anniversary of novelist Tanizaki Jun'ichiro's birth, and a memorial program for director Omori Kazuki and Murakami Tomohiko. There are three talks, and the one on 20 November is free. The lobby also hosts an exhibition of old Takarazuka film posters. A good pick if you want to see classic Japanese cinema on the big screen.
