Chofu Cinema Festival 2025映画のまち調布 シネマフェスティバル２０２５
Chofu is recognized as Japan's "Movie City" due to its strong ties to the country's film industry. Home to Toei Studios, which produced iconic series like Kamen Rider and Super Sentai, and associated with renowned directors like Juzo Itami and Kon Ichikawa, Chofu has long been a cornerstone of Japanese cinema.
The Chofu Cinema Festival reflects this heritage, featuring a diverse selection of films across genres and eras. This years highlights include the 4K digital remaster of The Phantom of the Opera, the critically acclaimed jazz-themed animated film BLUE GIANT, and the 4K restoration of the kaiju classic Gamera 2: Attack of Legion. Other notable screenings include Studio Ghibli’s Heisei Tanuki Gassen Ponpoko and the thrilling adventure Kaminofude: Island of Monsters.
The festival underscores Chofu’s role as a cultural center for cinema, offering an engaging experience for film enthusiasts.
