Minato International Association (MIA) holds a bi-monthly film screening and group discussion event called “Minato TABUNKA Cine-Talk.” Under the concept of “Nurturing an Intercultural Community Through Film,” we screen works that offer diverse global perspectives.
The film we will be screening is the documentary Midnight Traveler, which follows a family from Afghanistan as they seek asylum, filmed entirely on smartphones.
Director Hassan Fazili and his family embark on a journey to escape life-threatening danger and find a safe place to live. Through harsh conditions at borders and unstable life in refugee camps, the film portrays the very human story of a family behind the word “refugee.”
After the screening, there will be a discussion session where participants can freely share their thoughts and impressions. Everyone is welcome, whether you want to have an in-depth conversation about the film or just join casually.
The film features audio mainly in Persian, English, Turkish, and Bulgarian, with Japanese and English subtitles.
Please refer to the following flyer for our annual schedule of FY2025.
