Visual Communications in association with the Japanese American National Museum will present its first annual animation film festival!

The day-long event titled POW! WHIZ! BAM! offers a gourmet set-menu of animation works. Screenings will include an intimate showcase with local animators; ICE, a sci-fi post-apocalyptic lesbian Romeo and Juliet; and TRIGUN: BADLANDS RUMBLE, the classic Japanese shoot-em-up caper now re-imagined as a feature film.

This Mini-Film Fest is small and cozy. No cosplay, no singing robot concerts, just the toons. Tickets are $8 Members; $10 non-members.
