Film Description:
Ōme is an unknown city. Unknown to Japan. Unknown to tourists. In spite of its poetical name, Ōme “the blue plum” is a quiet small town on the outskirts of Tokyo. Far, very far from Hollywood and Cannes festival’s red carpet.
Movies are everywhere in Ōme through the countless movie posters plastered on the city walls. ŌMECITTÀ tells the story of the French artist who named Ōme the ‘Japanese Cinecitta’, inviting the viewer to an enchanted journey into the glorious past of Japan’s intriguing cinephilia.
