KOTATSU 2026: Japanese Cinema at Innis Town Hall

Our annual winter film showcase is returning to Innis Town Hall! This year’s edition offers a perfect blend of five Japanese films, from acclaimed contemporary films to recently restored classics. This year, the screenings will take place on Saturday, March 7 & Sunday, March 8.

The kotatsu (炬燵 or こたつ) is a signature piece of furniture and the centre of Japanese homes during cold seasons. The modern kotatsu features a low table frame covered by a special quilt or heavy blanket, upon which a table top sits. Underneath is an electric heater often built into the table itself. Before modern electricity, charcoal was used to heat a hearth set into the ground.

Saturday, March 7 & Sunday, March 8, 2026
