Sled Island Presents: Made In Japan
Sled Island is thrilled to present Made in Japan at the Calgary International Film Festival!
Made in Japan chronicles the career of Tomi Fujiyama, a Japanese country music sensation who reached the height of her success in 1964 performing in Nashville with Johnny Cash. Now in her 70s, Fujiyama is seeking a comeback in America. This documentary captures her resurgence in the time of new Nashville, where talent doesn’t always beat out popularity and commercial success.
Tomi Fujiyama and Director Josh Bishop will be in attendance at both screenings!
Friday, September 25 at 5:00pm (all ages)
Sunday, September 27 at 7:00pm (18+)
Globe Cinema, 617 8th Ave. SW
