Akira isn’t just a movie – it’s the genesis of a genre.
Katsuhiro Otomo’s landmark cyberpunk classic obliterated the boundaries of feature-length animation and forced the world to look into the future. Without Kaneda and Tetsuo, without espers and psionic assassins, without that iconic motorcycle – our world would be a far less exciting place to exist. Join AFS as they celebrate this seminal film’s 30th anniversary on the big screen!
