Ticket: The Harimaya Bridge - Tonight - San Francisco

This screening is presented by the USF Center for the Pacific Rim.

The Harimaya Bridge (2009)

This 2009 feature film was shot in Kochi Prefecture, Japan and in San Francisco and stars Ben Guillory, Saki Takaoka, Misa Shimizu, and Danny Glover. This is the director's first foray into feature films, and draws heavily on his experiences as an African-American transplant from the Bay Area teaching English in the rural Kochi region of Japan. A story of loss and redemption, one critic wrote of the film: ?a poignant parable suggesting that true love knows no boundaries, perhaps not even death.

Patrick L. Hatcher, Ph.D., a Kiriyama Distinguished Fellow at the USF Center for the Pacific Rim, will moderate.

This event is FREE & OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Reservations recommended. Please call our event registration line at (415) 422-6828.
