Tokyo. Italian animation in Japan is the focus of a talk at the Italian Cultural Institute in Tokyo on Wednesday, July 6 at 18.30. Driven by passion and idealism, many Italian artists of the younger generation produce animated films in difficult economic conditions: among them are Simone Massi, Gianluigi Toccafondo, Ursula Ferrara, Roberto Catani and many others, who create works of the highest caliber and reap rewards in international festivals (including the one in Hiroshima).
