In 2014, Festival/Tokyo worked with Al-Kasaba Theatre’s George Ibrahim, who performs Einat Weizman’s “Palestine, Year Zero.” Teaming up with the director Yukari Sakata, the dramaturge Kaku Nagashima and visual art unit Mé, “Rashomon | Yabunonaka” was a unique theatrical event inspired by Kurosawa’s film “Rashomon” and Akutagawa’s original short stories with a Middle East twist. This is a screening of video footage of the performance at F/T14.
