DESCRIPTION:Together with Kaboom Animation Festival we bring the best anime
	 to the big\nscreen!\n\nAlthough the machines’ home planet has been destro
	yed\, the Machine Empire is as\ngreat of a threat as ever. Earth has becom
	e a battlefield\, reduced to smoldering\nruins. Young Tetsuro\, older and 
	more battle-worn\, is summoned back into the\ninterstellar fray\, reinvigo
	rated by the hope of seeing his beloved Maetel once\nmore. The resistance 
	against Queen Promethium is crumbling\, and it’s up to\nTetsuro to end the
	 conflict once and for all. As boy becomes man\, comrades fall\,\nold frie
	nds reunite\, and new allies are made. The time of rebellion has come …\n\
	nTime has largely forgotten Rintaro’s sequel to Galaxy Express 999\, overs
	hadowed\nby the original’s cult success. Yet this is a leaner\, grittier a
	nime that opens\non the battlefront and plunges headfirst into war and dea
	th. It’s an underrated\nconclusion to Tetsuro’s life-changing journey that
	 the internet has re-evaluated\nas the what The Empire Strikes Back is to 
	Star Wars: A New Hope – you can even\nhear shades of John Williams in the 
	score. Whatever your relationship with the\noriginal\, the sequel undeniab
	ly is a high-speed bullet train of emotions and\nbrutal battles. It’s a fi
	tting and epic requiem for Tetsuro’s dreams spun from\nstardust and steam.
	 An adieu at full throttle.\n\nMelkweg often hosts different types of prog
	rammes at the same time\, such as\nconcerts\, club nights and films. Pleas
	e note that there may occasionally be some\nnoise pollution from other pro
	grammes during the screening.
