From Godzilla to Lost in Translation, join Eija Niskanen as she traces Tokyo’s celluloid history. Explore the city’s signature blend of nostalgia (in neighborhoods like Ginza and Nihonbashi), youth (Harajuku and Akihabara) and progress (in Roppongi and Shibuya), and see why Tokyo is the perfect setting for a sci-fi film.

About Your Guide: Eija Margit Niskanen has her M.A. from the School of Theater Film and Television at UCLA. She has traveled from her native Finland all the way to Japan, and seen some 30 countries along the way.
