• The restoration debuted at the Cannes Film Festival in May and is slated for screenings at Fantasia, Fantastic Fest and the New York Film Festival.
• Angel’s Egg originally premiered in Japan on December 15, 1985, and over decades has earned cult acclaim for its sparse dialogue and allegorical fantasy.
