Join us for an international movie night at the Language House! The students of the Japanese cluster will be showing "Rental Family" on April 30 at 6pm in 0107 St. Mary's Hall, in Japanese with English subtitles. Set in modern-day Tokyo, “Rental Family” follows an American actor (Brendan Fraser) who struggles to find purpose until he lands an unusual gig: working for a Japanese "rental family" agency, playing stand-in roles for strangers. As he immerses himself in his clients’ worlds, he begins to form genuine bonds that blur the lines between performance and reality. Confronting the moral complexities of his work, he rediscovers purpose, belonging, and the quiet beauty of human connection. All are welcome!
