Japan (2013) Dir: Yasuhiro Yoshiura. Inventive and heartwarming anime fantasy, Patema lives in an underground world of tunnels, the abandoned ruins of a giant industrial complex. While exploring in a forbidden zone, she tumbles headlong into a place with reversed physics, where if she let go she would “fall up” into the sky and be lost forever. A perspective-twisting sci-fi adventure about two kids separated by opposite gravities. Japanese with English subtitles. Blu-Ray. 99 mins. Partially funded by the Department of History.
