DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES — If you're planning on sitting around bored this evening, you might as well go sit in some comfy new theater seats instead. The ImaginAsian Center has a free screening of A Taste of Tea tonight at 9:30pm. Their site describes the film thusly:

The Taste of Tea is a psychedelic version of Ingmar Bergman's Fanny and Alexander and a lysergic homage to Yasujiro Ozu's human portraits of Japanese family life. The Haruno family has moved to the countryside and are quietly living their lives. That's the movie right there. No more and no less. Mom is sitting at the kitchen table, working on the handmade animated epic that'll give her re-entry into the anime industry she left behind to raise her kids. (synopsis from Subway Cinema)
