It’s going to be a great series!”

Only Yesterday, a 1991 film directed by Studio Ghibli co-founder Isao Takahata, will be screened in US theaters for the first time as part of the event. The movie, which focuses on a 27-year old woman as she looks back at her past to figure out what she wants to do in the future, currently holds a 100% Fresh rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.

Ghibli co-founder and the studio’s best known director, Hayao Miyazaki, is currently working on his next film, How Do You Live? Miyazaki, who directed Princess Mononoke and Spirited Away among countless other critically acclaimed animated movies, originally announced his retirement following the completion of 2013’s The Wind Rises. However, he is returning to the director’s chair for the new movie, which was inspired by Yoshino Genzaburo’s 1937 novel of the same name. Production on the movie began in 2016 and it does not currently have a final release date.

Fans can preorder their tickets for the screenings through Fathom Events, the official website for Ghibli Fest 2022, or through participating theaters.
