Film Screening at the Mills College Art Museum July 22, 2009

The Mills College Art Museum presents “Woman In The Dunes” a film by Hiroshi Teshigahara July 22 at 7pm, in conjunction with the our ongoing exhibition “Reverberations: Japanese Prints of the 1923 Kanto Earthquake.” The film is about an amateur entomologist searching for insects by the sea who is trapped by local villagers into living with a mysterious woman who spends almost all her time preventing her home from being swallowed up by advancing sand dunes. The woman and the trapped man begin a strange relationship that stretches over years, as the man's hope for escape dims. Not suitable for children.
