Meet Mamoru Hosoda, Japanese animator and director of modern masterpieces such as THE GIRL WHO LEAPT THROUGH TIME, WOLF CHILDREN, SUMMER WARS, the Oscar nominated MIRAI, BELLE, and more. His movies are more than just glorious works of art. They are each reflections of events that happened in his life time. For instance, did you know that SUMMER WARS was inspired by Hosoda's own marriage? Or that he once tried to direct HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE? That is one of many surprise secrets that await you in this retrospective and informative panel, in which time waits for no one. (Also stay tuned for a sneak preview of his newest movie, SCARLET!)
