Relaying comments: Reflections on 21st TIFF (Part I)
■Chairman Tom Yoda of Tokyo International Film Festival (TIFF, TIFFCOM)
This was my first film festival as a chairman. We are grateful for your understanding and favorable acceptance of Green Carpet welcome enacted upon Ecological theme as well as the official car "IQ". We've finally reached the moment of "hop" as in "hop, step and jump", today on Oct. 26. Furthermore, as of Oct. 27 onward, TIFF OFFICE will initiate the coming 365 days toward the "step" for next year. The film market, TIFFCOM was completed with a success and Industry members as well as the public won't be able to take their eyes off Tokyo, Japan during the late October when TIFF, TIFFCOM and CoFesta takes place.
