DESCRIPTION:Together with Kaboom Animation Festival we bring the best anime
	 to the big\nscreen!\n\nArguably the greatest animated film about motherho
	od and single parenting\, Wolf\nChildren imagines what it would be like to
	 have a lupine lover (go Team Jacob!)\,\nhave children\, and raise them al
	l by yourself. When university student Hana\nfalls in love with a mysterio
	us young man\, she discovers he is the last of his\nkind: a wolf who can s
	hift between human and animal form. Their joyful life is\ncut short\, leav
	ing Hana to raise their two wolf children on her own. Yuki is\nstrong-will
	ed and curious\, while Ame is more reserved. But both are torn between\nth
	e call of the wild and humankind. From small city apartments to Japan’s\nm
	ajestic countryside\, Hana’s unwavering devotion to the happiness of her k
	ids\nwill make your eyes water.\n\nEven though narrator Yuki fears this mi
	ght get laughed off as a mere fairy tale\,\ndirector Mamoru Hosoda has giv
	en us a grounded and deeply empathetic film\, drawn\nfrom his own childhoo
	d and mother\, who raised him as a single parent. The man\nbehind modern a
	nime classics like The Girl Who Leapt Through Time\, Summer Wars\,\nMirai\
	, and Belle slows the rhythm down for a richly told slice-of-life story\nw
	ith folkloric wonder. Despite its fantastical elements\, Wolf Children fee
	ls as\nreal and intimate as your own life. A lyrical meditation on love\, 
	nature\, and\nthe bittersweet necessity of letting go\, it speaks about be
	ing a mother\, being a\nchild\, smiling against all odds\, and finding you
	r true self along the way.\n\nMelkweg often hosts different types of progr
	ammes at the same time\, such as\nconcerts\, club nights and films. Please
	 note that there may occasionally be some\nnoise pollution from other prog
	rammes during the screening.
