The Harimaya Bridge Trailer --- Now Online



Here is the trailer for American filmmaker Aaron Woolfolk's motion picture, "The Harimaya Bridge" starring Danny Glover, Ben Guillory, Saki Takaoka, Misa Shimazu and Misono. It's the story of an African-American father who must travel to rural Kochi, Japan after his estranged son is accidentally killed there.

From a JET in Kochi to a Hollywood Filmmaker
