Based on a Japanese picture book by acclaimed author Akihiro Nishino, this award-winning, visually dazzling anime is the story of young Lubicchi living among the thick smoke of the chimneys in his isolated town, yearning to see the “stars”—to know the truth his father always told him about. One Halloween night, he meets Poupelle, a man made of garbage, and together they look to the sky as their adventure begins. Spectacularly beautiful, filled with inspiring performances and splendid music and sound effects, and produced at Tokyo’s famed STUDIO4ºC, Poupelle of Chimney Town brings laughter, tears, and joy. Description adapted from Eleven Arts. (Dir.: Hirota Yusuke, Japan, 2020, 101 min., DCP, English)
