Cape Ashizuri
Kōzaburō Yoshimura: Tides of Emotion
December 5 - 11, 2025
Among Yoshimura’s complex and political works, this episodic film, set in the early 1930s, follows the life of a young left-wing student activist disenchanted by the increasingly hawkish state of Japanese society.
Among Kōzaburō Yoshimura’s most complex and political works, this episodic film (written by Kaneto Shindō) adapts three autobiographical stories by the writer Tamiya Torahiko. Set in the early 1930s, Cape Ashizuri chronicles the life of a young left-wing student activist (Isao Kimura). Disenchanted by the increasingly hawkish state of Japanese society and by his comrades’ failures, he returns to his hometown, where he expects to eventually die, only to form a curious and perhaps redemptive connection with a woman (Keiko Tsushima) and her younger brother.
