The Girl Who Leapt Through Time
There is a future that we can't wait for.
Directed by Mamoru Hosoda
Produced by Madhouse, Happinet Pictures
A bittersweet coming-of-age fantasy about a teenage girl learning that time travel's power to fix mistakes comes with unforeseen consequences for herself and those she loves.
When 17-year-old Makoto Konno gains the ability to 'leap' backwards through time, she immediately sets about improving her grades and preventing personal mishaps. However, she soon realises that changing the past isn't as simple as it seems, and eventually, will have to rely on her new powers to shape the future of herself and her friends.
