TOKYO, During the 33rd Tokyo International Film Festival (TIFF) Closing Ceremony on November 9, "Hold Me Back" directed by Akiko Ohku received the Audience Award, the only award given this year due to COVID-19. Ohku said, "I'm really honored to receive this award for a second time. In these past 3 years, the world has changed, and while other festivals had to move online, TIFF was able to have audiences inside theaters, watching the films together. I'm so grateful to all the audience members and I hope I'll soon be able to shake all your hands."
