Please join us on Friday 6th February at 50 George Square, University of Edinburgh, for our screening of 2012 film, My Way of Life
Directed by Hideki Wada
Shujiro, a university professor, has recently lost his wife and has been living in despair. Despite his daughter Yuriko's anxiety about him, he starts to develop odd behaviour, which becomes a real problem for his family.
Doors open at 6pm and the introductory talk and film will start at 6.30pm. Simple refreshments will be served after the screening.

This is a free event that is open to all. However, there is a seating limit in the venue, so we would be grateful if you could book your place in advance through EventBrite.
