CAAM and the Japantown Merchants Association present CINEMA UNDER THE STARS

Posted August 26, 2008 by Luis in CAAM Events

The Center for Asian American Media co-presents a free outdoor screening of THE GIRL WHO LEAPT THROUGH TIME. When 17-year-old Makoto gains the ability to leap backwards through time, she sets about preventing personal mishaps. Yet she soon realizes that changing the past isn’t so simple! Can she use her new powers to shape the future of herself and her friends? From production company Madhouse, THE GIRL WHO LEAPT THROUGH TIME is an absorbing, beautifully crafted anime. Featuring a talented crew who worked on such classics as Princess Mononoke and The Grave of the Fireflies, this film is destined for modern classic status.
