Mary and the Witch's Flower
Ciné’s Spring Animation Series continues with a screening of the 2017 anime fantasy film directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, who was also an animator on Studio Ghibli’s Spirited Away, Ponyo and Howl’s Moving Castle. Based on Mary Stewart’s 1971 children’s book The Little Broomstick, the film tells the story of an ordinary young girl living in the countryside who follows a cat into the forest and discovers a mysterious fly-by-night flower that grants magical powers, but only for one night. An enchanted broomstick whisks her to Endor College, a school of magic high above the clouds, where she is at first mistaken for a witch and then unearths unethical experiments that must be stopped.
