Shinkai, who is widely considered to be one of the greatest anime directors of all time, has a dedicated following in India. Fans rallied for his film Weathering with You to be released in the country when it came out in 2019. The director himself visited India to attend the film’s screenings, and the response from fans was overwhelmingly positive. The release of Suzume is sure to be just as highly anticipated, and Indian anime fans are eagerly waiting for the chance to see Shinkai’s latest work on the big screen.

Suzume tells the tale of a 17-year-old girl named, unsurprisingly, Suzume. She lives in a quiet town in Kyushu and finds herself drawn to a mysterious young man searching for a door. After following him, Suzume discovers a weathered door in the ruins of the mountains and is inexplicably drawn to it. Upon touching the door, it opens, and Suzume finds herself transported to a world where doors are opening all over Japan, bringing with them disasters and destruction. Together with a group of others, Suzume must close the doors and save the world from this impending doom.

Critics have been raving about Suzume, praising the film’s stunning animation, engaging story, and captivating characters. Shinkai’s films are known for their beautiful visuals, and Suzume is no exception, offering audiences a feast for the eyes. The film’s release continues the recent trend of major anime films receiving official cinematic releases in India, and it is sure to be a big crowd-puller.
