Director Hiromasa Yonebayashi created and directed many famed anime films for the seminal Studio Ghibli, including The Secret World of Arrietty (2010). Yonebayashi has since founded his own anime studio, Studio Ponoc, and the result is Mary and the Witch’s Flower, which brings the art of anime film to a new level of realism and mastery. The film centers around Mary, a school girl who finds a magical flower takes her on an extraordinary adventure. With animation that makes this film a work of art unto itself, Yonebayashi depicts the lush English countryside in a photo-realistic style that departs from contemporary anime. Mary and the Witch's Flower is based upon Mary Stewart's 1971 children's novel, The Little Broomstick. Presented by the Sacramento Japanese Film Festival.

Idiocracy seems to be getting funnier with time. Starring Luke Wilson as Private Joe Bauers, a man selected because of his “averageness” by the Pentagon to be the guinea pig for a top-secret hibernation program. Forgotten, he awakes 500 years in the future to find a society so incredibly dumbed down that he's easily the most intelligent person alive.
