Angel Egg Exhibition

It has been announced that the "Angel's Egg 40th Anniversary Exhibition," an exhibition of the legendary OVA (original video animation) "Angel's Egg" by director Mamoru Oshii, released in 1985, will be held at Cine Quinto (Shibuya Ward, Tokyo) from November 21st. In conjunction with the screening of the 4K remastered version at the theater from November 21st, an image board will be on display. Original merchandise will also be on sale.

"Angel's Egg" was Director Oshii's first original work, with Yoshitaka Amano in charge of the original concept and art direction. It was produced in an ascetic style, with almost monotone colors, very few lines, unusually long takes, and only about 400 cuts, about one-third the number of cuts in a normal anime. It was released as an OVA in 1985, and was screened in theaters for a limited time to commemorate its release.

The 4K remaster version was supervised by Director Oshii himself, and was scanned from the original 35mm film, remastered in 4K, and the sound was reconstructed in 5.1 channel surround and Dolby Atmos. It will be released exclusively in Dolby Cinemas from November 14th, and will be released nationwide from November 21st.
