Makoto Shinkai joins us for an on-stage interview and screening of his new film, a trio of short stories concerned with the adversities of time, love, people and space.
We are pleased to announce that Makoto Shinkai will be signing books and dvds in the BFI Filmstore after the screening. His art books have been shipped over from Japan and we have only a very limited number in stock. These can be pre-ordered by calling the Filmstore on 020 7815 1350.
5 Centimetres per Second
Deriving its title from the speed that cherry blossom petals fall from a tree, Shinkai's new film is a trio of short stories concerned with the adversities of time, love, people and space. Starting in the mid-1990s and ending in the present day, we see snapshots of what is and what might have been in the lives of Takaki and Ahora, who start off as friends but look as if they may be blighted by conventions and distance.
