Japanese Film Festival Viewing for Art Project 2/21/06
Feb. 21: Bright Future, directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa, (2003, 115 min.)
Two young guys work in a plant that manufactures oshibori (moist handtowels found in some Japanese restaurants). Their weird bond is based on uncontrollable rage–something neither can articulate or control–and the strange jellyfish that they keep as a pet.
We will meet at the Key at 6:30 on Teusday, and transportation to Southgate Cinema will be provided. There is no charge, and all are welcome. Sounds rad, dudes.

St. Olaf bands Unicorn Basement and Tarlton will be playing at the Key Saturday 18th at 7:00pm. This concert is FREE and CDs will be for sale by Unicorn Basement. The show promises to be a danceable, groovy, crazy music experience.
