Overview

If you can remember the last time a Studio Ghibli film didn’t make you cry, then chances are you are some kind of robot. Under the leadership of co-founders Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata, the Japanese production house has been responsible for some of the most moving animated films in the history of the medium, from the powerful anti-war tale Grave of the Fireflies to the Oscar-winning fable Spirited Away.

Inspired by this incredible legacy, and hastened by the rumours that the studio may be shutting up shop, the Golden Age Cinema & Bar have programmed a miniature Ghibli retrospective. Hop into your moving castle: it's time for a stroll down memory lane.

The centrepiece of the season is the studio’s most recent work, Hiromasa Yonebayashi’s enchanting coming-of-age film When Marnie Was There. Complimenting the new film are titles from Ghibli’s back catalogue, including Isao Takahata’s swansong The Tale of Princess Kaguya as well as a date night double feature of My Neighbour Totoro and Spirited Away.
