Episode 48 - Kani Releasing w/Ariel Esteban Cayer

While Vinegar Syndrome's Halfway Subscriber Week has officially kicked off, we'll be talking about that in full next week with a special guest, so in the meantime we thought we'd spotlight one more OCN partner label with another one of our favorites, Kani Releasing! Co-founder Ariel Esteban Cayer joins Chris and Eli to talk about Kani's incredibly diverse catalogue, highlighting some the best in underseen Asian cinema, and how they've grown from their start as a blu-ray label to theatrical exhibition. We also get to chat about some of the early releases, highlight a few new ones, and going deep into the Shaw Studios catalogue for some real discoveries, including this month's release: The House of 72 Tenants.After that, Celeste and Eli are back with another 15 Minutes With You, covering half of the very stacked April release slate. They'll be back with the second half later this month! You can keep up with all things Kani and see if any of their titles are playing at a theater near you by following their IG page and of course, supporting them by picking up their awesome releases on the VS OCN Partner Label page:https://www.instagram.com/kani.releasinghttps://vinegarsyndrome.com/collections/kaniThank you to everyone who listens and please let us know how we can make the show better.
