Plot Outline: From Academy Award-winning director Hayao Miyazaki (Spirited Away) and featuring an incredible voice cast, including Cate Blanchett, Liam Neeson, Matt Damon, Tina Fey, Frankie Jonas and Noah Cyrus, Ponyo is a magical adventure the whole family won’t want to miss. Ponyo is a mischievous and adventurous little goldfish who meets Sosuke, a five-year-old boy who lives by the sea with his mother. Sosuke gently cares for Ponyo and quickly wins her heart. Magically transforming herself into a little girl, Ponyo embarks on a series of adventures with her new friend. But Ponyo’s desire to be human upsets the delicate balance of nature and triggers a gigantic storm. Only Ponyo’s mother, a beautiful sea goddess, can restore nature’s balance – and perhaps make Ponyo’s dreams come true.
