Intertitles in Japanese with English translationKomaneko is a burgeoning animator. She creates puppets and sets, then films them stop-motion style. She has a series of adventures with her friends Radi-Bo, a ghost and a Bigfoot-like creature whom she tries to document with her 8mm camera. Featuring a sweet soundtrack with little dialogue, except a few strategically placed “meow, meow, meows,” Komaneko: The Curious Cat depicts new friendships, creativity and the conflicting emotions that accompany a childhood filled with wonder. Director Tsuneo Goda has created Japan’s first major stop-motion animated film. It is a delicate, beautiful and undeniably cute work enlivened through brilliant technique. This screening will delight children of all ages. (Recommended for ages four and up)

i think it can only be better.
because it’s a stop action fuzzy cat with a big round head and menacing eyebrows!
(there’s a video clip where his eyebrows get stern, in case you’re thinking i’m crazy).
