Description
’Avant-Scène invites you to experience the latest edition of ‘Anim’ ta nuit’, dedicated to Japanese animated films released or re-released in 2026.
Throughout Saturday evening, discover four films set in unique worlds, ranging from fantasy romance and poetry to science fiction and cyberpunk. The programme will open with ChaO, a funny and unpredictable romance driven by Studio 4°C’s visual inventiveness, followed by A New Dawn, a debut feature film of great artistic delicacy. The evening will continue with *Ghost in the Shell*, Mamoru Oshii’s visionary masterpiece presented in a restored 4K version, followed by *All You Need Is Kill*, a new animated adaptation of the light novel on which the film *Edge of Tomorrow* was based.
On Sunday morning, *Totto-Chan: The Little Girl at the Window*, which won an award at the Annecy Festival, will continue the adventure with a sensitive and luminous tale of childhood, education and freedom – perfect for the whole family.
