‘KiKi’s Delivery Service’
In celebration of STUDIO GHIBLI FEST 2017, a six film monthly series of anime classics from independent animation distributor GKIDS and Fathom Events, AWN has a KiKi’s Delivery Service-themed gift pack to give away to one lucky winner!
The gift pack includes an adorable Jiji plushie, a full-color book, “The Art of KiKi’s Delivery Service,” and two free tickets to a screening at a location of your choosing.
The iconic KiKi’s Delivery Service, from Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli, will play in U.S. movie theaters nationwide for two days only on Sunday, July 23 (dubbed) and Monday, July 24 (subtitled).
KiKi’s Delivery Service is the beloved coming-of-age story of a resourceful young witch who uses her broom to create a delivery service, only to lose her gift of flight in a moment of self-doubt. It is tradition for all young witches to leave their families on the night of a full moon and set out into the wide world to learn their craft. When that night comes for Kiki, she embarks on her life journey with her chatty black cat, Jiji, landing the next morning in a picturesque seaside village, where a bakery owner hires her to make deliveries.
