Studio Ghibli Films Returns to The Cinematheque

Due to popular demands and plenty of sold-out shows in the past, The Cinematheque is doing a second run of Studio Ghibli retrospective this Summer! A total of 16 Ghibli films will be screened throughout July 4 – August 5, 2013. With the exception of Ponyo, all films will be shown in Japanese language with English subtitles.

The program includes two rare titles — Only Yesterday and The Ocean Waves — never released in North America. It also features two films not included in The Cinematheque’s first presentation of the retrospective in December: popular Ponyo, a great favourite of children, and the recently-released From Up on Poppy Hill, the latest wonder from Studio Ghibli.

Location: Cinematheque – 1131 Howe Street, Vancouver BC

“From Up on Poppy Hill” Playing at the Vancity Theatre + Giveaways!

From the legendary and highly celebrated Studio Ghibli (Spirited Away, Totoro, and Princess Mononoke) comes From Up on Poppy Hill, the uniquely inspired and highly anticipated coming-of-age story from Goro Miyazaki and Hayao Miyazaki.

Vancity Theatre will be playing From Up on Poppy Hill from March 22 to March 31, 2013 in both subtitled and dubbed versions. Full schedule. Vancity Theatre is located at 1181 Seymour Street, Vancouver BC.

Set in Yokohama in 1963, the latest animated feature from Studio Ghibli is a poignant teen love story, graceful, understated but full of feeling. Written by Hayao Miyazaki and directed by his son Goro, the movie transports us to a bustling seaside town, with its misty harbor, sun-drenched gardens, shops and markets, and some of the most mouthwatering Japanese home-cooking set to film.
