 &lt;/strong&gt;\n&lt;strong&gt;Price:&lt;/strong&gt; from $12.00\n\n6 pm\n &lt;em&gt;A Hen in the 
 Wind&lt;/em&gt;\n&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 12px&quot;&gt;Set in Tokyo in the immediate aft
 ermath of World War II\, &lt;em&gt;A Hen in the Wind&lt;/em&gt; finds young mother Tok
 iko trying to make ends meet as she tries to care  for her young son Hiros
 hi. When the boy falls ill\, she turns to  prostitution\, a desperate act 
 which threatens to destroy her marriage  once her husband Shuichi&#x27;s return
  from war and the secret is revealed.  Following other wartime and postwar
  films like &lt;em&gt;There Was a Father&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Record of a Tenement Gentl
 eman&lt;/em&gt; \,  this is a surprisingly trenchant work from a filmmaker bette
 r known for  his later\, more serene middle-class domestic dramas\, mixing
  Ozu&#x27;s  melodramas of devotion and reconciliation with a devastating criti
 que of  US-occupied Japan.\n \n &lt;em&gt;Director: Yasujiro Ozu. 84 mins. 1948.
  35mm.&lt;/em&gt; \n7:15 pm\n &lt;em&gt;Equinox Flower&lt;/em&gt;\n&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 1
 2px&quot;&gt;Ozu&#x27;s first film in color\, &lt;em&gt;Equinox Flower&lt;/em&gt; offers a variatio
 n on the director&#x27;s postwar dramas of marriage and  domesticity among the 
 middle class with this comic satire of changing  traditions and gender rol
 es. Having developed the theme of arranging a  young daughter&#x27;s marriage i
 n earlier masterpieces like &lt;em&gt;Late Spring&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Early Summer&lt;/em&gt;
  \,  and refined and simplified his style throughout the films of the 1950
 s\,  Ozu here deploys a vivid color palette\, precise camera angles\, and 
  typically idiosyncratic mise-en-scene to convey a story about subtle  cla
 shes of old and new&amp;mdash\;with much subversion of patriarchal authority a
 nd  bar-hopping.\n \n &lt;em&gt;Director: Yasujiro Ozu. 118 mins. 1958. 35mm.&lt;/e
 m&gt; \n \n Part of the series &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.92y.org/Tribeca/Film/Not-C

 presented by the film blog of the same name.\n \n As an added bonus\, The 
 Criterion Collection has generously donated two  Ozu&amp;nbsp\;box sets which 
 we will give away to some lucky audience members!\n \n &lt;em&gt;Tickets: $12\,
