Filmbar screening of Shunji Iwai's "All About Lily Chou-Chou" (2001) at the Research and Publication Centre (RPC) on Saturday, October 25, 2025 at 5:00 pm. Kindly note changed timing.
For children around the world, music is often the only salvation when the pain and anxiety of teenage life becomes too much to bear. Yuichi (Hayato Ichihara) is in the 8th grade and he worships Lily Chou-Chou, a Bjork-like chanteuse whose epic music is lush and transcendent. Yuichi only lives for Lily Chou-Chou's big Tokyo concert, where the lies and violence can be washed away by the presence of his goddess and her powerful music. But fate has yet another obstacle in store for Lily's devoted fan.
Address: Research and Publication Centre (RPC), 2nd Floor, 65 Main Gulberg, Lahore. Lift is functional. Tea will be served.
