Kato is an aspiring screenwriter treading water. He spends his days pitching stories to offbeat agents and executives who are anything but impressed. Not that he has run out of ideas, they just don’t seem to go anywhere. Unlike his relationship with his girlfriend Zigzag – that one is going down the drain. Little does Kato – or anyone – know that life is about to take some seriously weird turns.While out to buy the special brand of food for his girlfriend’s dog Cerberus, Kato discovers an abandoned convenience store that transforms his trajectory. A stumble into a refrigerator catapults him into a realm of fantastical inspiration boosted by an eccentric couple he meets along the way. Might this be the key to getting his mojo back?Miki Satoshi (Adrift in Tokyo, What to Do with the Dead Kaiju?) returns with a surreal and quirky indie film that manages to be both charming and deeply philosophical. Teaming up with Japanese cinema expert and notable critic for The Japan Times Mark Schilling (Art, Cult and Commerce: Japanese Cinema Since 2000), Convenience Story takes you on an eccentric Dantean ride brimming with psychological tension and the zest of karma. From the purgatory of writer’s block, to a hell of an adventure, Kato’s journey is a satisfying and thoughtful tale.源自：

Directed and edited by Esfir Shub. A devastating chronicle of Tsarist Russia from the eve of World War I until its brutal demise in the revolutions of February and October 1917, The Fall of the Romanov Dynasty comprises hundreds of films that Esfir Shub unearthed and rescued from damp cellars and other neglected corners of the Soviet Union, including newsreels and home movies taken by the Tsar’s own cameramen. Using the film splice as a cudgel, Shub contrasts the Imperial Family in opulent ballrooms, regal processions, and garden tea parties with the backbreaking toil of the masses, a bitter satire that makes the Revolution seem both historically inevitable and triumphant. One of the great pleasures of this Vertov retrospective is rediscovering the work of certain largely forgotten women filmmakers of the Soviet avant-garde, including Elizaveta Svilova, Vertov’s editor and wife, and Shub, who pioneered “found footage” cinema and was instrumental in the development of dialectical montage, collaborating with Sergei Eisenstein on the shooting scripts of Strike and Potemkin.

物語は、かつて太古の昔、神との約束を破り、禁断の木の実を食べた男アダムと女イヴ、神聖な誓いを破ったその瞬間、神の怒りにふれて、地球は最初の核爆発により全ての生き物は絶滅した。それから数万年、いや数億年を経て、地球は再び蘇生し、平和が訪れ、鳥はさえずり、人の子らは海辺で戯れる。その時、子供らの楽園に一人の男が現れた。男は触れてはならぬものに触れた。それは子供のへそだ。へそこそ母親の胎内から繋がってきた命のひも、生命の絆である。それはみだりに触れてはならぬものだ。世の中にはもう一つ触れてはならないモノがある。それは原子爆弾のボタンだ。子供のへそと核爆弾のボタンこそは絶対に触れてはならぬモノだ。核爆弾の歴史はわずか70年、生命の源であるへその緒は何十億年、人間のへその緒でも数億年、人間のへその緒は決して濫りに触れてはならぬモノ、命のふるさとだからだ。いま、海からやってきて子供のへその緒にふれた男〈土方巽）がいた。ああ、終わりだ。へその緒からあのキノコ雲が、ああ、終わりだ。それから数億年を経てまた新しい地球はアダムとイヴの昔に帰り、同じ海岸に同じリンゴが転がっている。音楽は前田憲夫（ピアノ）、渡辺貞夫（サックス）、猪俣猛（ベース）日野皓正（トランペット）。
