Your Name

We're doing another collaboration with Anime & Manga Society; and we've decided to try out a relatively new film that isn't Studio Ghibli! 'Your Name' follows the story of Taki and Mitsuha who both long for something more in their lives, but soon they begin to switch bodies! As they try to figure out what's happened to them, they realise that they need to work together to avert an incoming catastrophe!
