Synopsis:
Adapting sci-fi author Yasutaka Tsutsui's famous 1967 novel, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time cast Tomoyo Harada in her feature film debut, launching the Kadokawa pop idol into superstardom. After suffering a fainting spell in her school's laboratory, 16-year-old Kazuko Yoshiyama (Harada) begins to experience a strange phenomenon throughout her daily life--temporal leaps backward and forward in time--disorienting her as she relives moments time and time again, as days past return to present. Lost in a sea of time, Kazuko's desperate plead to exist in the present are answered, amidst the swell of FX wizardry, musical overtures and, most of all, the anchor of young love. Lyrical, romantic and longing, Obayashi's film is a genuine expression of the filmmaker's reflections on the poetic transcendence of love--cast across the stars for a young girl who lives in tomorrow.
