Dive into the surreal and moving world of Kaiba, the extraordinary science fiction anime series from director Masaaki Yuasa.
In a future where memories can be stored, bought, and sold digitally, identity is no longer tied to a single body. When a mysterious young man awakens without memories—with only a strange symbol on his body and a pendant with the photo of an unknown girl—a journey begins through a strange and ruthless world, in which he slowly discovers who he is—and how his past is connected to the woman in the photo.
With its seemingly simple, retro animation style and deeply philosophical story, Kaiba explores themes such as identity, inequality, and the value of memories. During this marathon, you will experience all episodes of this unique series back-to-back—a visual and emotional journey you won't soon forget.
During this screening, you will see episodes 8 through 12.
