One of the great triumphs of Studio Ghibli and acclaimed filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki, this is the film that introduced the animation house to the world. It’s a simple tale of two girls who move to the country and uncover a magical world in the nearby forest.

Satsuki and Mei’s mother has taken ill. In order to be closer to her while she recovers in a rural convalescent hospital, their father moves the two sisters from their home in a city to the countryside. The house they move into is a ramshackle old place in the shadow of an ancient camphor tree, and Satsuki and Mei embark on adventures with the wondrous forest spirits who live nearby.

Celebrate the 40th anniversary of Studio Ghibli, watching this beautiful tale on the UK’s largest screen.
