Screening of La Verbena in Tokyo
Though short (18 minutes to be precise), La Verbena , directed by Rubén Sánchez, has a lot to say. Until June 26, you can enjoy the screening of this new production from Spanish cinema at TOHO Cinemas Roppongi Hills free of charge.
The film is an aesthetic, narrative and conceptual challenge that focuses on the reunion of Alex and Marc, marked by two events that have an impact on both characters. On the one hand, Gabriel D'Almeida plays Alex, a young man about to become a father who struggles with the acceptance of his homosexuality. On the other, Robin Reese plays Marc, his best friend, who brings with him a piece of news that they both have to come to terms with. Throughout the film, the characters evolve, revealing their secrets to self-acceptance.
The screenings of the film take place at TOHO Cinemas Roppongi Hills, and you can book your free tickets here.
