Screening held 1 month before February 17 opening in North America
The USA Film Festival in Dallas announced on Friday that it is working with Studio Ghibli's Arrietty film will receive a theatrical run in North America starting on February 17. In conjunction with A-Kon, the festival will screen 11 Ghibli films on new 35mm prints from January 21 to 22, and A-Kon fans can reserve tickets before sales to the general public begin.
Arrietty re-imagines Mary Norton's 1952 novel The Borrowers by moving the story to a Tokyo suburb. The story revolves around Arrietty, a member of the "little people" who live under the floorboards of a regular human family's home, and their struggle to remain hidden from the human "beans."
The movie originally ran in theaters there in August.
