Imagine uncovering the magic of Satoshi Kon's 'Tokyo Godfathers', a film where humor and heart converge in the bustling streets of Tokyo. That's exactly what we're doing in this month's edition of 'International Feature'. Together, we confront our initial doubts about older anime and celebrate the timeless charm of this 2003 classic.

As we discuss this unconventional Christmas story, we unravel the intricate dynamics between three compelling characters and their miraculous journey with an unexpected child. The film weaves themes of homelessness and family estrangement into a tapestry that resonates with universal appeal. We acknowledge its emotional depth and character development and marvel at Satoshi Kon's ability to balance humor and darker themes, crafting a narrative that's both entertaining and thought-provoking. Our take on how Tokyo Godfathers compares to other holiday films adds a fresh perspective to the season's lineup.
