Currently, Suzume is set to debut in U.S. theaters on April 14th. You can get tickets now for screenings at your local theater. Suzume’s release marks the latest movie from Shinkai to make its way to U.S. theaters. Weathering With You was the last movie directed by Shinkai to take over theaters, and of course, the filmmaker experienced incredible success several years ago with the release of Your Name. Now, Suzume is next up to sweep audiences away, and you can read its official synopsis below for more info on the fantastical romance:
“Suzume’s journey begins in a quiet town in Kyushu (located in southwestern Japan) when she encounters a young man who tells her, “I’m looking for a door.” What Suzume finds is a single weathered door standing upright in the midst of ruins as though it was shielded from whatever catastrophe struck. Seemingly drawn by its power, Suzume reaches for the knob… Doors begin to open one after another all across Japan, unleashing destruction upon any who are near. Suzume must close these portals to prevent further disaster. The stars, then sunset, and the morning sky. Within that realm, it was as though all time had melted together in the sky…”
