The Snow Woman
Strange Frames presents a haunting tale from Japanese folklore, strikingly visualised on screen.
Director: TOKUZŌ TANAKA
80 MINS / 1968 / JAPAN / JAPANESE
Strange Frames presents the chillingly elegant ghost story set in feudal Japan.
This haunting folk tale follows a sculptor who encounters a mysterious woman during a snowstorm, an meeting that binds their fates forever. Part horror, part love story Tokuzō Tanaka’s film is based on the medieval folklore of the Yuki-onna, a snow witch who could turn people into ice and snow and disappear into a blizzard.
Don’t miss this rare chance to see one of Japan’s most poetic ghost stories on the big screen!
Hosted and curated by Strange Frames, a monthly film club that celebrates the offbeat, grotesque and arcane, examines the unexpectedly transgressive and revels in the strange frames of cinema. Exploring the 20th century’s most important storytelling medium through the lens of history, folklore and legend.
