Teodora Ana Mihai's debut feature Heysel 85 had its Berlin premiere nearly eight months ago and is now launching internationally at the Tokyo Film Festival this week, where it received its Asian premiere. The Romanian-Belgian filmmaker directed the film from a screenplay she co-wrote with Lode Desmet and Isabelle Darras. Heysel 85 draws inspiration from the 1985 Heysel Stadium disaster in Brussels, where 39 people died before the European Cup Final between Liverpool and Juventus.
