The official website for Ghost Cat Anzu, Shinei Animation and France’s Miyu Productions’ 2D-animated film based on Takashi Imashiro’s Bakeneko Anzu-chan manga, announced on Tuesday that the film will screen during the Directors’ Fortnight at the 77th Cannes International Film Festival.
The Directors’ Fortnight is an independent film selection that runs parallel to Cannes, which differs from the official selection due to its relatively non-competitive nature.
The film will screen along with another Japanese film, Desert of Namibia.
Kodansha published the one-volume Bakeneko Anzu-chan manga in 2007.
