CJS Winter 2026 Film Series | Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes (ドロステのはてで僕ら)

Directed by Junta Yamaguchi, 2020, 1h 10m
Thursday, January 22, 2026
7:00-8:30 PM
Off Campus Location
Our film series kicks off with a chaotic one-take film in which a cafe owner discovers that the television in his cafe suddenly shows images from the future, but only two minutes ahead. The film is an example of nagamawashi, a microgenre of mostly low-budget one-shot Japanese films that have gained popularity with films like One Cut Of The Dead.

Attendance is free and open to the public, and no prior registration is required. Seating is first-come, first-served, and doors open at 6:30 PM.

Presented in Japanese with English subtitles. Read more about the film, including ratings, at https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14500584/
