MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO

HAYAO MIYAZAKI | JAPAN | 1988 | 86 MIN | G | ENGLISH (DUBBED)

Despite a legendary career filled with some of the most emotionally-resonant and imaginative scenes, animated or not, in cinema, Hayao Miyazaki’s My Neighbor Totoro remains for many the Studio Ghibli film. An endlessly charming tale that encourages wonder, exploration, and acceptance of the unknown all told through the eyes of two sisters facing one of life’s hardest challenges. After moving to a new home with their father to be near their sick mother, Mei and Satsuki discover that they have the most surprising of roommates in the form of mischievous soot bunnies. As their curiosity leads them into the neighboring forest they will encounter a bevy of timeless characters that will instill memories in them and viewers of all ages for a lifetime.

Arrive early for family-friendly fun before the movie! Activities to begin 1 hour before the screening.

Cast: Hitoshi Takagi, Noriko Hidaka, Chika Sakamoto


Part of the Family Matinees Series
Welcoming children and caregivers to experience kid-friendly classics both new and old. Arrive early for family-friendly fun before the movie! Activities to begin 1 hour before the screening.
