Two Japanese films, which are “Bravo! Samurai Battle” and “ALWAYS—Sunset on Third Street”, were shown at Silverbird Cinema, Accra Mall. People got excited to see Ninjya and Samurai and seemed to have been moved by people’s efforts in rebuilding the nation of Japan in the aftermath of the Second World War and the heartwarming interaction between people in Tokyo in the 1950s |
