They said tickets were delivered at Japan Foundation Center from 10am to 6pm. But when I come at 12.20, they asked me to come back at 2pm. In addition, one of my friends came to JFC in order to get tickets on this Tue, just one day after the first day distribution was started, officers said almost every tickets had been distribuited. The maximum number of tickets for one person is only 2. I am quite disappointed. Japanese films festival last year gave me a good impression, that’s why I want to join it this year. However, it seems to be not easy for me to do that.
We are so sorry to hear that.
I guess they have lunchtime break so they asked you to get back at 2pm, and because their films were so nice, they sold out tickets very soon.
We hope that you all – our readers – are lucky next time to get tickets.
Best,
