Mamoru Oshii's Angels Egg anime film in theaters in 4K

Read...
One of Mamoru Oshii's anime films that never made it to theaters returns in a restored, high-quality version for a unique event.
The film depicts the encounter between a little girl and a traveler in a ruined world (centered on the mystery of an egg she guards), with little dialogue but dotted with symbols and biblical references.

Angel's Egg (orig. Tenshi no Tamago), the 1985 animated masterpiece directed by Mamoru Oshii and written by Oshii with Yoshitaka Amano, arrives at the theaters for the first time!

After directing the two Urusei Yatsura films (Only You and Beautiful Dreamer) and ten years before gaining international fame with Ghost in the Shell, Oshii outlines his poetics in this dreamlike and meaningful work, which has become a cult film.

The art direction and character designs are by Yoshitaka Amano, a legendary Japanese illustrator also known for his work on the Final Fantasy video game series, while the animations are by Studio DEEN.

An unmissable special event in theaters November 19, distributed by GKIDS Films in the new restored 4K version, created from the original 35mm materials.

Here's the trailer:
