Join us as GKIDS presents a special encore screening of Look Back, the smash hit coming-of-age anime from first-time director Kiyotaka Oshiyama. And as an added bonus, the first 100 people through the door get a special custom 7×7 art board from the film!
Popular, outgoing Fujino is celebrated by her classmates for her funny comics in the class newspaper. One day, her teacher asks her to share the space with Kyomoto, a truant recluse whose beautiful artwork sparks a competitive fervor in Fujino. What starts as jealousy transforms when Fujino realizes their shared passion for drawing.
Based on the acclaimed manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto, Look Back captures the highs and lows of pursuing artistic excellence and the special bonds formed through creative collaboration.
This film will be presented in Japanese with English subtitles.
