Starting this weekend, GKIDS & Fathom Event’s kicks off STUDIO GHIBLI FEST 2017 (a six-film monthly series of anime masterpieces) with its first title “My Neighbor Totoro,” hitting select U.S. movie theaters on Sunday, June 25 at 12:55 p.m. local time (English language dubbed) and Monday, June 26
at 7:00 p.m. local time (English language subtitled). Also as part of
the exclusive event experience, audiences will enjoy the GKIDS MINIFEST,

the world.
“My Neighbor
Totoro,” from legendary director Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli,
follows the story of two young girls, Satsuki and Mei, who move with
their father to a new house in the countryside. But country life is not
as simple as it seems, as they soon discover the house and nearby woods
are full of strange and delightful creatures, most notably a family of
Totoros, gigantic but gentle bear like forest spirits that can only be
seen by children.
Tickets for “My Neighbor Totoro” can be purchased beginning online by visiting www.ghiblifest.com, www.FathomEvents.com or at participating theater box offices. A complete list of theater locations can be found on the Fathom Events website (theaters and participants are subject to change).
Following
“Totoro,” the monthly series will continue with “Kiki's Delivery
Service,” “Castle In The Sky,” “Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind,”
“Howl’s Moving Castle,” plus a special cinema-run of the Academy
Award-winning “Spirited Away” timed for Halloween.
