Originally released in 1985, Angel’s Egg is an avant-garde, experimental animated film widely renowned for its poetic visual and sparse dialogue, created by the highly imaginative director Mamoru Oshii and featuring art direction by Yoshitaka Amano.
The Angel’s Egg 40th Anniversary Exhibition invites visitors not only to experience the newly restored 4K version on the big screen, but also to explore the creative origins, artistic backgrounds, and enduring mystique of the film through an exhibition intertwined with the theater environment. This marks the first-ever attempt to merge screening, exhibition, and merchandise sales within a cinema space.
The exhibition features approximately 70 carefully selected image boards from over 200 that were produced to share creative visions between Oshii and Amano during production. The works are organized into three thematic sections titled “The Girl,” “The Boy” and “The World of Angel’s Egg.” Within these sections, visitors will find a special area that reveals the story behind Amano’s newly drawn illustration of “The Boy,” created in celebration of the film’s 40th anniversary.
Additional displays showcase key scenes from the animation, along with sculptural works by concept artist and digital sculptor Entei Ryu, whose art is deeply influenced by both Oshii and Amano.
Visitors can also enjoy a wide range of exclusive merchandise at the goods shop, featuring items inspired by Yoshitaka Amano’s artwork as well as limited-edition designs based on memorable scenes from the film.
The program presents the new 4K remaster of Angel’s Egg on the big screen at Shibuya Cine Quinto. An accompanying exhibition illuminates the film’s creative essence, complemented by a selection of commemorative goods that celebrate its enduring legacy.
