The Boy and the Beast

Mamoru Hosoda Retrospective
From award-winning Japanese director Mamoru Hosoda (Summer Wars, Wolf Children), comes The Boy and The Beast, a story about a young orphan living on the streets of Shibuya who stumbles into a fantastic world of beasts. He is taken in by a rough-around-the-edges warrior beast that’s been searching for the perfect apprentice. Despite their bickering, the two slowly form a bond like father and son. When deep darkness threatens their worlds, however, their bond is put to the ultimate test.
