The Tale of Princess Kaguya is the result of decades of creative reflection by director Isao Takahata, co-founder of Studio Ghibli, and culminates in a work of breathtaking beauty. Discovered inside a glowing bamboo stalk, a little girl grows into a young woman of exceptional beauty, raised by an old bamboo cutter and his wife. From the countryside to the imperial capital, she manages to enchant everyone she meets, even without fully revealing herself, including five noble suitors. In the end, she must face her destiny, a punishment for a transgression she committed long ago. Spoken in Japanese with Dutch and French subtitles, 2 hours and 17 minutes. Start 8:00 PM, free participation.
