The theme of TIFF is “Ecology – Contribution to global environment.” As a part of our social action programs, we are running a fund-raising campaign for the environment conservation activities at the festival venues. To extend the campaign, we will hold the charity auction, featuring movie props used in the films screened in 22nd TIFF and others, as well as TIFF original goods.
This auction will be held in cooperation with Rakuten, Inc.. The sales from the auction are to donate to Green Tokyo Fundraising Campaign、Japan-Malaysia Association “Kinoshita no Mori” project, the National Land Afforestation Promotion Organization and Lawson Green Fund, and National Federation of UNESCO Associations in Japan “Mirai Isan” project.
The charity auction event will take place in Roppongi Hills Arena on Saturday, October 24. We are looking forward to your joining the event.
