Come join Stanford Newtype in our celebration of its 15-year anniversary! We’ll be showing a movie once a week for each year the club has been at Stanford.

Where: Asian American Activities Center (see eflyer for directions)
When: Saturday, January 27, 2 - 4 pm
Snacks provided.

Our first movie in the series is “Porco Rosso” (Kurenai no buta), directed by Hayao Miyazaki, director of award-winning “Spirited Away” and “Princess Mononoke.”

Summary: In Early 1930’s era Italy, air pirates, bounty hunters and high fliers of all sorts rule the skies. The most cunning and skilled of these pilots is Porco Rosso, a man cursed with the head of a pig after watching the spirits of the pilots killed in the last air battle he fought in rise to the heavens. He now makes a living taking jobs, such as rescuing those kidnapped by air pirates. Donald Curtis, Porco’s rival in the air and in catching the affections of women, provides a constant challenge to the hero, culminating in a hilarious, action packed finale.
