The Lincoln Festival of Japanese Culture is a celebration showcasing Japanese film, music, art, food and much more. Lincoln based Blueprint: Film Foundation are organising and putting on the event with additional funding from the Japan Society and Lincoln BIG to celebrate Japanese Culture and share it with the Lincolnshire community.

The screening of 'Pigs and Battleships', which will be closing the event will also be accompanied by a talk from acclaimed Japanese cinema expert, Jasper Sharp.
