Girl Who Leapt Through Time (Blu-ray) ***Preorder*** 9/9

'A breakthrough for Mamoru Hosoda' — Kambole Campbell, Polygon

Makoto is a typical teenage girl who spends most of her days slacking off with friends. One day while rushing to meet her aunt, she nearly gets hit by a train, but at the last second, finds herself jumping backwards through time to avoid the accident. She immediately makes use of her newfound ability to re-do every minor inconvenience – from poor exam results to awkward confessions of love. However, when faced with the consequences of tampering with time, Makoto must do everything she can to avoid a dire future that can't be reversed.

The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is a beloved early film from Mamoru Hosoda, the Academy Award®-nominated* director behind BELLE, Wolf Children, SUMMER WARS, and more. Hosoda weaves together the timeless, breathtaking visuals for which he is known with a tender-hearted story of a girl navigating first love, time travel, and the perilous choices that come with both.
