Godzilla Minus One (dir. Takashi Yamazaki).
Cleverly titled in reference to Japanese society's post-war destruction resetting the nation back to "zero," Godzilla Minus One is centred on the people's deep-seated anxieties after surviving nuclear war and then going even further back to "minus" within the film. Its sense of resilience reckons with history on screen and wartime tensions of survivor's guilt and government frustrations.

Imagine if the Terminator and Godzilla franchises crossed over with each other.
I keep having this mental image of Skynet sending a kaiju-sized Terminator (maybe like an advanced Mechagodzilla?) back in time to wipe out Godzilla and the kaiju, since they keep getting in its way. Meanwhile the Resistance seeks out a kaiju to help them end Skynet's reign.
(I'm not sure how the logistics of such a crossover would work, but this is a half-formed idea, nothing more...)

Monster (dir. Hirokazu Kore-eda) x VIFF 2023.
The real "monster" was the snap judgments and assumptions we made along the way. Kore-ada once again chooses compassion through understanding in his nuanced portrayal of children experiencing trauma and conflict as he unfolds his touching melodrama from three shifting character perspectives (not unlike Rashomon). It's a soulful portrait of youth with adults struggling to understand strange behaviour in children.
Screened at the 2023 Vancouver International Film Festival as part of the Special Presentations series.

Leading up the release of Astro boy and directly after the atomic bombs were dropped on Japan, Anime undertook a journey of incredibly important development that is severely under-researched. This is the History of Post-War Anime and Japan - Wookong
