How to Become Myself

This event has already taken place and ended on 19 Mar 2010

A memorable movie depicting the struggles of adolescent outsiders to find their own path in a conformist society, from the director of Tony Takitani. This is a more subtle, understated film than the usual 'seishun eiga' or 'manga-to-movie' style, of which it is an example.
