Follow us on Twitter @JapanEmbDC  From Up on Poppy Hill Bonus Screening: Tuesday, July 1, 6:30 p.m. Our Location: JICC, Embassy of Japan 1150 18th St, NW Suite 100 Washington, DC 20036 Driving directions © 2011 Chizuru Takahashi, Tetsuro Sayama, GNDHDDT. All rights reserved | 91 min | Rated PG | In Japanese with English subtitles | Directed by Goro Miyazaki Bonus Screening The setting is Yokohama in 1963, and Studio Ghibli lovingly brings to life the bustling seaside town, with its misty harbor, sun-drenched gardens, shops and markets, and some of the most mouthwatering Japanese home-cooking ever drawn!      The story centers on an innocent romance beginning to bud between Umi and Shun, two high school kids caught up in the changing times. Japan is picking itself up from the devastation of World War II and preparing to host the 1964 Olympics - and the mood is one of both optimism and conflict as the young generation struggles to throw off the shackles of a troubled past.     While the children work together to save a dilapidated Meiji-era club house from demolition, their tentative relationship begins to blossom. But - in a twist that parallels what the country itself is facing - a buried secret from their past emerges to cast a shadow on the future and pull them apart. Register Now!
