On April 13th, actors Oguri Shun (28) and Nagasawa Masami (23) attended a special screening of their new film, “Gaku”, and greeted the audience on stage at Hitotsubashi Hall in the Chiyoda district of Tokyo.
The event was originally planned for March 23rd but was postponed due to the Great Tohoku Kanto Earthquake. Before the film was shown for the first time ever, Oguri addressed the attendees, “I’m glad everyone looks like they’re doing well”.
“Gaku” is a film about a man named Sanpo (Oguri) whose love for the mountains demonstrates their splendor and intensity. As the overarching theme of the movie is “living”, Oguri expressed his hope that “this movie becomes some sort of strength” and “while many people were hurt by the recent disasters, everyone should strive to keep on living together”.
“Gaku” was directed by Katayama Osamu and will premiere on May 7th in theaters across Japan.
