BLACK BOX DIARIES

A journalist upends Japan’s entrenched codes of silence when she brings sexual assault charges against a well-connected member of the Japanese media elite. Against the wishes of many of those closest to her, Shiro Ito presses on with her case, bravely confronting an entire system. Her case becomes a landmark in Japan, and her choices a riveting reminder of the insidiousness of sexism and patriarchal oppression anywhere.

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Shiori Ito.
