DEMOLITION GIRL: Aya Kitai Stomps Her Way To Japan Cuts This Summer

The thirteenth installment of Japan Cuts kicks off in New York City on July 19 and local folks will be more than pleased with this year’s illustrious and artful line-up, including debut director Genta Matsugami’s Demolition Girl.

Actress Aya Kitai leads the way as a stoic high school girl whose renewed hope in a college career and growth in the real world finds itself hampered by a series of obstacles – all ranging from poverty and family secrets, to her secret occupation as a foot fetish snuff video star.

The film, which took home a Japan Cuts Award win at this year’s Osaka Asian Film Festival in March, will have its North American premiere on July 22. Click here for more info.
