—Kyoto International Student Film Festival—
The Kyoto International Student Film Festival, which is celebrating its 17th anniversary this year, is the largest international student film festival in Japan and is planned and run mainly by students in Kyoto.
This year, it will be held at Kyoto Cinema from November 22 (Sat) ~ November 28 (Fri).
Every year, we are looking for volunteer staff to help us translate the subtitles of the films to be screened, with the aim of being a film festival in which a wide range of students can participate, as we are invited to film films produced by students from Japan and abroad every year.
