Hidden by darkness. Guarded by witches. Discovered by a boy. Stolen by a king. Whoever owns it will rule the world. Or destroy it!
Cinematic Void is back at The Frida Cinema to present a slightly-late 40th anniversary screening of Disney’s rarely-screened gem The Black Cauldron!
Taran is an assistant pigkeeper with boyish dreams of becoming a great warrior. However, he has to put the daydreaming aside when his charge, an oracular pig named Hen Wen, is kidnapped by an evil lord known as the Horned King. The villain hopes Hen will show him the way to The Black Cauldron, which has the power to create a giant army of unstoppable soldiers.
This event is co-presented by both Cinematic Void and The American Cinematheque! Member discounts do apply!
