Today, on , we recognize the vital connection between water and Indigenous Peoples. Water is our relative- and our relationship to water is reflected in our Indigenous languages. Protecting our waters also means protecting our knowledge systems, where our worldviews flow like rivers, carrying forward wisdom and traditions.

(Japan, 2008) 101 minutes. Written and directed by Hayao Miyazaki. Introduced by Dr. Nathaniel Heggins Bryant.

Calling all Studio Ghibli fans! Playing at the edge of the sea, five-year-old Sōsuke comes across a small goldfish trapped in a glass jar. Unbeknownst to him, this goldfish is Brunhilde, who prefers to be called Ponyo, the headstrong daughter of a powerful magician named Fujimoto who lives under the ocean and who resents land-dwelling humans continually polluting and overfishing his realm. Drama and magic ensues in this animated feature, the eighth film Hayao Miyazaki directed for Japan's most famous animation studio, Studio Ghibli. Ponyo quickly became the fifth-highest grossing anime ever and still sits in the top-ten. Roger Ebert gave the film four stars out of four, declaring "There is a word to describe Ponyo, and that word is magical. This poetic, visually breathtaking work by the greatest of all animators has such deep charm that adults and children will both be touched. It's wonderufl and never even seems to try: It unfolds fantastically."

This film would be of particular interest to those working in Japanese anime and manga; animation; and environmentalism and critical ocean studies.

Be sociable and share with your colleagues, students, staff, campus clubs, and organizations who might be interested - the screening is free!

Their Chico concert is Tuesday February 28 at 7:30PM. As a part of the annual CSUC New Music Symposium, the three composers (along with music director Etienne Gara) will come talk to the students/public the following morning (Wednesday, 3/1 @ 10:30am) in PAC 134. This event is FREE.
