Song of a Dying Summer (逝く夏の歌) – Film Screening

March 14, 2024 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$5

Milwaukee Premiere!

Natsu spends a last summer alongside his friends, Aki, Fuyu and Haru, while writing a stage play to commemorate their time together. Shot entirely on 8mm film, Kohei Sengen’s feature-length debut, with its grainy images steeped in muted colors, creates an almost dreamlike atmosphere, conveying the melancholy of growing up – and growing apart.

(Kohei Sengen, Japan, Japanese w/Eng sub, 71 min, 2022, Digital)

Free for UWM students and Union Cinema members.

$5 admission for all others.

The film is in Japanese with subtitles, and the translation and subtitles were done by UWM alum Brandon Crisp! Brandon graduated in 2019 with a degree in Japanese.
