HULA GIRLS SCREENING
On Saturday, March 26th NEW PEOPLE will offer three free screenings of HULA GIRLS, an award-winning film based in the currently devastated Fukushima, Japan.
Admission is free, with a suggested donation of $10. All proceeds will go to Northern Japan Earthquake Relief by JCCCNC. Find our more about Japan’s Earthquake & Tsunami Relief Fund here.
Based on a true story, HULA GIRLS is a heartwarming comedy about coal miners’ daughters who took a once-in-a-lifetime chance to escape their monotonous lives, only to become unwitting heroes to their depressed mining town as well as the whole of Japan. A must see! HULA GIRLS was Japan’s official entry to the 2007 Academy Awards Best Foreign Film category that won four Japanese Academy Awards the same year including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay and Best Supporting Actress.
