🎬 Tokyo Expat Afternoon Discussion — Connection Without Closeness (Her, 2013)

Sat, Apr 25 · 2:00 PM JST

日比谷公園 噴水広場 (Hibiya Park Fountain Plaza), 日比谷公園 噴水広場 (Hibiya Park Fountain Plaza), 日本、〒100-0012 東京都千代田区日比谷公園１−２, Tokyo, JP

🗓 Date: Saturday, April 25, 2026
⏰ Time: 2:00 PM – 4:30 PM
📍 Location: Hibiya Park Fountain, Tokyo
1-6 Hibiyakoen, Chiyoda City, Tokyo 100-0012, Japan
(3-minute walk from Hibiya Line – Exit A14)
💴 Fee: ¥1,500

Event Details:
We’ll gather at Hibiya Park for a relaxed, open-air discussion inspired by Her (2013) — using it as a starting point to explore connection, distance, and what intimacy looks like today.

We’ll talk about questions such as:

• Where does loneliness appear even when we feel “connected”?
• What does intimacy look like when it doesn’t follow traditional forms?

Set in one of Tokyo’s most peaceful central parks, this will be a calm, unhurried space to sit together, share thoughts, and reflect. The setting naturally allows for softer conversation — some moments in a group, others in smaller circles as discussions unfold.
Rather than focusing on the film itself, we’ll use it as a reference point for broader questions around modern relationships, emotional closeness, and the ways we connect in everyday life.

You don’t need to have watched the film recently — or at all — to join. Some people come ready to share, others prefer to listen, and many simply enjoy being part of the atmosphere. All of it is welcome.
