Film showcase: Tokyo Geidai
The history of the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts & Music dates back to the end of the nineteenth century when Tokyo was home to two art schools - the School of Fine Arts and the School of Music. The Faculty of Film Production and the Faculty of New Media came into existence much later. In 2008 the Faculty of Animation was established, which is currently run by critically acclaimed filmmaker Koji Yamamura.
