| Kawasaki Shinyuri Film Festival

Volunteers |
Registered volunteers play major roles in planning and arranging the film
festival. They select the films, plan entertaining events, and also engage
in public relations. They edit official leaflets and program brochures,
and produce the official website.
|
Barrier-free aspects |
--For the auditory handicapped, we have been screening some Japanese films
with Japanese subtitles.
--For the visually handicapped, we have been screening some films with
our audio guide system. This was made possible by voluntary scriptwriters
and voice-over dubbing actors.
--A babysitting service supported by experienced volunteers is available for some programs.
--Wheelchair users are welcome to all programs.

The Junior Film-making Workshop |
We started the Junior Film-making Workshop program in 2000, hoping so that the junior-high school students in Kawasaki get to know various people in their area as well as discover their creativity through film- making. Supported by teachers of Japan Academy of Moving Images (Nihon-eiga-gakko) and film festival volunteers among others they have created high-level films.

|
Cinema-uma |
The zebra, symbol of the film festival, is called cinema-uma which sounds
a bit like shima-uma meaning zebra in Japanese with celluloid strips as
its coloring.
