Kiki’s Delivery Service [DUBBED] (U)

Family Film Club

,Cinema 2
Kiki's Delivery Service

Back in cinemas after a long wait, this beautiful Ghibli animation is magical on the big screen!

At age 13, Kiki is excited to leave her parents and find her place in the world as a witch. Taking her faithful cat, Jiji, she travels by broomstick to a new home and learns lessons about kindness and community, as well as overcoming the challenges she faces as the new girl in town. 

This utterly charming film from master director Hayao Miyazaki, based on the book by Eiko Kadono, is a delightful story of a young girl growing up and beginning to make her own choices. Unmissable for film fans, young and old, this is Ghibli animation at its very best.

Please note: FFC screenings are designed for families to attend together so adults can only come if they’re bringing a child, and children can only come along if accompanied by an adult. We are able to accommodate ‘babes in arms’ at FFC screenings for children of 18 months and under. Any child over 18 months must have a seat purchased for them.
