Australia's Madman Ent. Adds Ghibli's When Marnie Was There

posted on by Lynzee Loveridge

Australian anime distributor Madman Entertainment announced on Wednesday that it licensed Studio Ghibli's When Marnie Was There anime film.

Madman Entertainment describes the story:

Sent from her foster home in the city one summer to a sleepy town by the sea in Hokkaido, Anna dreams her days away among the marshes. She believes she's outside the invisible magic circle to which most people belong – and shuts herself off from everyone around her, wearing her “ordinary face”. Anna never expected to meet a friend like Marnie, who does not judge Anna for being just what she is. But no sooner has Anna learned the loveliness of friendship than she begins to wonder about her newfound friend…

The anime film opened in Japan on July 19. A distributor has not announced When Marnie is There for North American release, but From Up On Poppy Hill English dub producer Geoffrey Wexler's LinkedIn profile lists himself as the English-language dub and subtitle producer for the film.
