Thanks to our Japanese distributor Fine Films, Cats of Malta, known as Nekoshima in Japan, will be released across Japanese theatres from 10th January 2025.
While in Tokyo, we took part in three press interviews and visited two venues - Human Trust Cinema and Shinjuku Musashino Theater - to meet mangers and staff, and sign walls, posters and other printed materials. The private screening Hibiya Library & Museum also went well, with 100 attentive people in the audience and a successful Q & A session.
This project is supported by Arts Council Malta and マルタ観光局 MTA Japan.
We had so much fun in Tokyo representing Cats of Malta and are excited to see the result of the wonderful marketing campaign Fine Films have been working on for months.
Here is the website for Nekoshima in Japan, where the theatrical venues and showtimes are listed: https://catsofmalta-movie.com/
