Performance Notes
In this classic Studio Ghibli animation, forests are filled with groups of magical tanuki, mischievous raccoon-like animals from Japanese folklore that are capable of shape-shifting from their standard raccoon form to practically any object. The tanuki spend their days playing idly in the hillsides and squabbling over food – until the construction of a huge new Tokyo suburb clears the nearby forest and threatens their way of life. English dubbed version will be screened.
Dir. Isao Takahata, 1994, Japan, 119 min.
Common Sense Media Recommends Pom Poko for ages 9 or 10+ “Anime tale with environmental message; some peril, sadness.”
