This masterpiece, born from the creative minds of Daft Punk and Leiji Matsumoto, is not just an anime; it’s a symphony of visual storytelling set to the rhythmic beats of “Discovery.
On a single, special night, a revamped high-definition version of Daft Punk and Leiji Matsumoto’s iconic 2003 animated masterpiece, “Interstella 5555: The Tale of the Hidden Star System“, will be showing in cinemas again.
On December 12th, enthusiasts will get a unique chance to view the remastered version of “Interstella 5555” by Daft Punk on the big screen, with the film being shown in more than 800 cinemas spread across over 40 different countries. Trafalgar Releasing’s CEO, Marc Allenby, expressed his excitement about this one-night-only global event, stating that it is a rare opportunity for audiences worldwide to enjoy the film on the big screen alongside Daft Punk’s music videos.
In 2003, Interstella 5555 was introduced to us, a joint production between Daft Punk, Cédric Hervet, Matsumoto, and Toei Animation.
