Pom Poko - Studio Ghibli Fest 2024

Pom Poko 30th anniversary during Studio Ghibli Fest 2024 at Aurora Cineplex.

Fandango Synopsis: From the legendary Studio Ghibli and Academy Award®-nominated director Isao Takahata comes an action-packed ecological fable about the clash between nature and human civilization. The tanuki (raccoon dogs) of Tama Hills find their fun-loving community under attack when their quiet woodlands are threatened by encroaching developers looking to create still more houses and shopping malls. Desperate to survive, the tanuki band together and learn the ancient art of transformation, shape-shifting into a comical variety of humans and spirits as they undertake a last-ditch plan to scare away the humans and save their home in this deeply affecting, funny, and heartfelt look at what it means to live in the modern world.
