The cinematograph invented by the Lumière brothers took Paris by storm in 1895. In Japan, the industrialist Katsutaro Inabata was instrumental in organizing the country’s first cinematograph screening two years later. At this event 120 years after the cinematograph’s arrival in Japan, panelists will unfurl the history of the moving image since then, examining the future that it created to reach where we are today.
