Shuhei (Masahiro Motoki) is talked into joining by his wily professor\, but decides to stick around when he gets sight of the pretty manager\, Natsuko (Misa Shimizu).

SUMMARY:Jesse Zubot / Inedia at VIFF Centre
DESCRIPTION:Jesse Zubot is one of those unique musicians whose praxis spans multiple genres and transcends contextualization. \nGet Tickets\nKnown mainly as a violinist\, Zubot is also a multi-instrumentalist and tends to incorporate electronic manipulation and studio gadgetry within his work. For this performance Zubot will perform solo using a violin\, viola and miscellaneous electronics. Zubot’s performance will stem from a place of improvisation and will incorporate multiple sounds and techniques that relate to his work as a film composer for award-winning films such as Bones of Crows\, Indian Horse\, Resident Orca\, Nechako: It Will Be a Big River Again\, Arthur Erickson: Beauty Between the Lines\, Monkey Beach\, and many others. \nThis 60-minute solo performance will be complemented by a preview screening of Inedia (107 mins). Liz Cairns’ mesmerizing debut — filmed on Salt Spring island — tells the disturbing story of a young woman suffering from mysterious food allergies. When all else fails\, she joins a remote island community practicing a lifestyle rooted in the theory of nourishment by light. Initially seduced by its charismatic leader (Susanne Wuest) and other members’ peaceful disposition\, she soon realizes that not everything is as it seems when hidden tensions emerge and food deprivation becomes its own distraction. Zubot’s score — composed with his brother Josh — incorporates a large palette of sounds including gongs\, strings\, wood blocks\, metallaphones\, synthesizers\, Arabic flutes\, drums and software instruments. They were able to create a very unique and haunting score that supports and helps drive the intensity of the film as it follows the dark psychological journey of lead character. The two composers were able to bring each others’ talents to a higher level by complimenting and challenging each other’s creative output. \nAbout Jesse Zubot:\nZubot is a multiple JUNO award-winning and Canadian Screen Awards nominated artist. He is also the recipient of a SOCAN Award\, Leo Award and Canadian Screen Music Award for his work as a film composer. Throughout the years Zubot has collaborated with an extremely diverse range of artists and groups such as Darius Jones\, Tanya Tagaq\, Gord Grdina’s Haram\, Steve Reich\, FYEAR\, Pura Fé\, Dan Mangan\, Mats Gustafsson\, Peggy Lee\, Destroyer\, François Houle\, Saul Williams\, Stars\, Hawksley Workman\, Fond of Tigers\, Marc Ribot\, Sandro Perri\, Kenton Loewen\, Josh Zubot Strings and many others.

SUMMARY:Jimi James / Blues for Brando at VIFF Centre
DESCRIPTION:The Jimi James Quintet is honoured to be paying tribute to what might be the most impactful development in jazz history: the emergence of bebop. \nGet Tickets\nThe Method era coincided with the arrival of bebop. Both disciplines combined formal master with greater autonomy\, introspection and improvisation. You can be sure Brando was grooving to Charlie Parker\, Dizzy Gillespie et al\, just as the jazz men would have been checking out hot movies like Streetcar and The Wild One. \nIn playing the music of such jazz legends as Thelonious Monk\, Bud Powell\, Clifford Brown and Charlie Parker\, the Jimi James Sextet will highlight the innovations and evolutions of the bebop style. With a sophisticated\, heartfelt\, and exuberant sound\, the group features Hugh Penner — trumpet\, Tamas Balai — alto saxophone\, Jimi James — piano\, Arvind Ramdas — drums\, and Kosma Busheikin — bass. \nAbout The Wild One (Laszlo Benedek\, 1954\, 79 min) \nBanned in many countries upon its release\, The Wild One is the first film about 1950s youth rebellion\, preceding films like Rebel Without a Causeby several years. It features Marlon Brando as the leader of a motorcycle gang – the Black Rebels – that disrupts a legitimate motorcycle race and then rides into a small town where they terrify the residents and fight with a rival gang. The Wild One crystallized Brando’s rebel image.
