Movie Night @ New York Japan Society on July 26th
The road-trip movie "DON'T STOP!," starring One Peace Books president Takashi Ayumu and hard-rocking oldster CAP, will make its North American premiere in New York on Thursday, July 26, as part of the Japan Society's film festival JAPAN CUTS.
"DON'T STOP!" tells the story of Ayumu, world traveler and popular author, and CAP, who still dreams of riding a Harley-Davidson down Route 66 in spite of having become confined to a wheelchair after a devastating accident twenty years ago. Accompanied by eleven of their friends, they journey through America in a motor home toward the hallowed highway and the fulfillment of CAP's lifelong dream.
Director Kenji Kohashi will be present for an exclusive Q&A session before the screening, and there will be an after party featuring special DJs and guest musicians, as well as plenty of drinks and snacks to go around. So consider this an invitation to come rock with us at the Japan Society on the evening of Thursday, July 26!

Information
Movie [DON’T STOP!]
DON'T STOP! documents the journey of "CAP," a hard-as-nails 46-year-old man who realizes his lifelong dream, to go to America and ride a Harley down Route 66. CAP's love affair with America and motorcycles began when he was young, but when he was 26, a traffic accident immobilized his left hand and lower body. Over the next 20 years, much of his life has been spent either in bed or in a wheelchair. In a 10-day, 4200 km trip across the U.S., encounters and miracles happen along the way to breathe fresh life into CAP and his friends.
