Beetle Queen Conquers Tokyo
1788 El Prado, San Diego, 92101
Cost: $9 - $12
The film opens in modern-day Japan where a single beetle recently sold for $90,000 and delves into the ineffable mystery of the country’s age-old love affair with bugs. Working backward through history, the non-fiction film untangles the web of cultural influences behind Japan’s rich and enriching social relationship with insects.
