Documentary filmmaker Adrian Francis’ acclaimed Paper City comes to Tokyo for a week of screenings at Eigakan Stranger cinema in Kikukawa, Sumida-ku. Paper City explores, profoundly, the last remaining survivors of the 1945 firebombing of Tokyo and their journey for justice. The night of March 9-10, 1945 was an evening in which 100,000 people lost their lives and a large geographical section of the city was left ravaged, scorched and decimated with the painful memories still very much alive today, more than 70 years after the fateful event.
