            <description><![CDATA[ <p><img src="http://www.kumie.jp/ja/img/090422_1.jpg" width="540" height="250" alt="" /></p>
 It is announced that the Golden Coach Award (Carrosse d'Or) of the 62nd Cannes International Film Festival will be given to Kawase Naomi.<br />
<br />
This year's festival opens on May 13th and the award ceremony and the screening of "Hotaru 2009 version" will be held on the second day, May 14th. This award is given to a film director who has contributed to Cannes Festivals as well as Director's Fortnight of SRF (Film Directors' Society), judged by 250 members of the SRF. The Award is established in 2002, and Clint Eastwood, David Cronenberg, Jim Jarmusch won the award in the past events. She is the first Japanese director who won this award.<br />

The special screening of "Hotaru 2009 version", whose original film was premiered in 2000, was planned for the award ceremony, and director Kawase herself re-edited the original film.

            <title>bean - Nara Craftsman Fair -</title>
            <description><![CDATA[<p>October 4 (Sat) & 5 (Sun) 2008 - Nara Centennial Hall</p>

<p>It sprouts from Nara.</p>


<p>Nara, the ancient capital of Japan, will welcome 1300 years since its establishment. From the land where the Tenpyo culture flowered as a terminal point of the Silk Road, a new culture is about to be born. <br />
The "bean" is a sprouted event in which young creators, who shape the Nara's future for the next hundred and thousand years, get together. Creators in a variety of fields (film, food, craftwork, etc.) get beyond their daily activities and gather in the Nara Centennial Hall. The craft fair will be held by such creators who have the feelings of love toward Nara.<br />

<p>In this year's event, we will organize a symposium for the ongoing project of Nara International Film Festival in 2010, inviting a guest from overseas. Furthermore, Kawase Naomi's representative works "The Mourning Forest" (with English subtitle) and "Shara" (Japanese language only) will be screened as a pre-event for the Festival, <br />
with an optional bus tour of visiting the shooting locations of the Mourning Forest.</p>
<p>For further information, please contact us.</p>]]></description>
