The Boy and the Heron - Expat Cinema Rotterdam
Miss seeing international films because you can’t yet keep up with the Dutch subtitles? Want to meet fellow expats and new Dutch folks? Love cinema? Then this is the event for you! Join Expat Cinema Rotterdam for the best international art house cinema with English subtitles.
Mahito, a boy trying to cope with his mother’s death, enters a world inhabited by both the living and the dead. In this realm, death fades, and life emerges in a new form.
Nearly ten years after The Wind Rises, anime master Hayao Miyazaki (known for Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle, My Neighbor Totoro) returns with a new semi-autobiographical and fantastical masterpiece: The Boy and the Heron. Miyazaki, in collaboration with Studio Ghibli, creates another enchanting film, a remarkable feat considering his announced retirement after The Wind Rises at the 2013 Venice Film Festival. Could this truly be his last work? If so, it’s a magnificent farewell from a legendary director.
