"Bugmaster" in Sundance, getting offers

Katsuhiro Otomo's manga-based fantasy "Bugmaster", starring Joe Odagiri, is currently shown in Sundance Film Festival in Utah, and the studio Toshiba Entertainment revealed that they are getting offers from more than 10 countries, including US and Australia.  The film was shown at Venice Film Festival last year as well.

Back in Japan, a screening event was held with Otomo and Odagiri appearing on stage.  Odagiri said, "this story is very much Japanese, so I am curious how foreigners feel to watch this movie."
