Mary and The Witch’s Flower is set to be back in theatres for 2 days of encore screenings on February 24th and 26th
The debut title from Studio Ponoc, Mary and The Witch’s Flower, will get a special encore screening following its successful January 18 premiere. Grossing more than $1.1m for the special premiere with Fathom Events led to the film debuting at number 3 at that day’s box office, with the highest per-screen-average-attendance. The box office now stands at $1.9m, making the title the most successful GKIDS theatrical release in the company’s history.
This stunning, action-packed fantasy adventure is the second collaboration between Academy Award®-nominated director Hiromasa Yonebayashi (Studio Ghibli’s When Marnie Was There and The Secret World of Arrietty) and two-time Academy Award®-nominated producer Yoshiaki Nishimura (Studio Ghibli’s The Tale of The Princess Kaguya and When Marnie Was There).
Mary is an ordinary young girl stuck in the country with her Great-Aunt Charlotte and seemingly no adventures or friends in sight. She follows a mysterious cat into the nearby forest, where she discovers an old broomstick and the strange Fly-by-Night flower, a rare plant that blossoms only once every seven years and only in that forest. Together the flower and the broomstick whisk Mary above the clouds, and far away to Endor College – a school of magic run by headmistress Madam Mumblechook and the brilliant Doctor Dee. But there are terrible things happening at the school, and when Mary tells a lie, she must risk her life to try to set things right.
