 n<em>MBT Studies in Japanese Culture</em><em></em>\n<strong>Film:&nbsp\;</
 strong><strong>Dear Doctor-with English Subtitles</strong>\n\nFresh out of
  med school\, young physician Soma (Eita) takes up a summer position at a 
 small provincial clinic run by Ino (Shofukutei Tsurube). Also an outsider\
 , mild-mannered Doctor Ino suddenly showed up at the village a few years b
 ack\, and earned the trust of the residents with his kindness and dedicati
 on. Soma himself is also soon swayed by his mentor's down-to-earth nature 
 and selfless attitude\, but Ino's spotty medical knowledge raises red flag
 s. Through different encounters and cases\, it gradually becomes apparent 
 that Ino is in fact a phony.\n\nAward-winning director Nishikawa Miwa (<em
 >Sway</em>) presents an uncommon character study of a con artist who is ne
 ither hero nor villain but fascinatingly human in the drama&nbsp\;<em>Dear
  Doctor</em>. Nishikawa uses the pursuit of truth and the fragile balance 
 between lies and reality to reveal the complexities in human nature and re
 lationships.&nbsp\;\n\n<strong>Take part in the after film discussion of t
 his film's relevance to Japanese culture.</strong>\n<strong>NO Admission f
 ee.</strong>&nbsp\;Popcorn and snacks will be served. Please RSVP (312) 94
 3-7801 so we'll know how many chairs to setup.\n\n
