One is by a multi-award-winning master of modern Japanese cinema; while the other is a loopy, endearing debut work by a talented screenwriter and musician from the San Francisco Bay Area. We invite everyone to join us at these upcoming events. MONDAY June 22 7:00 p.m. The Regent Westwood 1045 Broxton Ave. (between Weyburn & Kinross), Los Angeles, CA 90024 WEDNESDAY June 24 4:15 p.m. Landmark 8 10850 W Pico Blvd,, Los Angeles, CA 90064 STILL WALKING is a family drama about grown children visiting their elderly parents, which unfolds over one summer day. The aging parents have lived in the family home for decades. Their son and daughter return for a rare family reunion, bringing their own families with them. They have gathered to commemorate the tragic death of the eldest son, who drowned in an accident fifteen years ago. Although the roomy house is as comforting and unchanging as the mother’s homemade feast, everyone in the family has subtly changed. In this bittersweet, quietly poetic film, old resentments and new tensions bubble to the surface. With a subtle balance of gentle humor and wistful sorrow, Kore-eda portrays just how precious — and exactly how annoying — family can be.
