Welcome back to week two of Asian Pop-up Cinema. Today, our special guest is the visionary director Mipo O. A graduate of Osaka University of Arts and a former protégé of Nobuhiko Obayashi, Oh has established herself as a master of intimate, empathetic storytelling. She gained international acclaim with The Light Shines Only There, which served as Japan’s official Oscar submission in 2014. We are focusing today on her powerful return to the director’s chair with her latest film, How Dare You. This project marks a significant moment in her career, continuing her exploration of complex human emotions and societal pressures with her signature delicate touch.
