JFF is delighted to present screenings of this 2006 anime classic Tekkonkinkreet. In Treasure Town, where the moon smiles and young boys can fly, life can be both gentle and brutal. This is never truer than for Black and White, two street urchins who watch over the city, doing battle with an array of old-world Yakuza and alien assassins vying to rule the decaying metropolis. From the creators of The Animatrix, this visually-stunning anime film is based on a popular Japanese manga written by Taiyo Matsumoto (Ping Pong).
