Tomoko Yamaguchi stars in the 1994 Shunji Iwai film Undo, which is screening in a 4K remaster as a double feature with PiCNiC. She appeared with co-star Etsushi Toyokawa and Iwai at a stage greeting at TOHO Cinemas Shinjuku on the 26th.
Yamaguchi's current coverage centers on the 4K revival of Undo, the 1994 film she stars in with Etsushi Toyokawa. In August, the remaster was set for screenings starting September 25 at TOHO Cinemas Hibiya and other venues, paired as a double feature with Iwai's PiCNiC (1996), also newly remastered.
A stage greeting for Yamaguchi, Toyokawa, and director Shunji Iwai was announced in September, scheduled after the September 26 screening at TOHO Cinemas Shinjuku and tied to the Undo and PiCNiC double feature. Trailers for both films and a comment video from Iwai were released at that time.
The event was reported in October, with Iwai, Toyokawa, and Yamaguchi appearing together 32 years after the film's release. Toyokawa said Kaori Momoi introduced him to Iwai. Yamaguchi said she asked to meet Iwai after seeing 'Fireworks, Should We See It from the Side or the Bottom?', and Iwai said the three began talking at an izakaya in Sangenjaya. Iwai also used the stage to propose another small collaboration with both actors.
