Ottawa Architecture Week - Trivia night
Join us for a special screening of Hayao Miyazaki’s beloved animated film Ponyo at ByTowne Cinema. A poetic celebration of water, nature, and the relationship between humans and the world around us, Ponyo invites audiences into a beautifully imagined coastal landscape where the boundaries between land and sea begin to shift.
Through Miyazaki’s unforgettable hand-drawn animation, the film explores themes of environmental balance, curiosity, and the powerful forces that shape our surroundings. From the movement of tides to the architecture of coastal homes and communities, Ponyo offers a dreamlike reflection on how we inhabit and connect with watery landscapes.
Presented as part of our celebration of place, memory, and the living systems that define our cities, this evening invites audiences of all ages to experience a film where water is not just a backdrop — it is a character, a force, and a story of its own.
Come enjoy an evening at the theatre, reconnect with the wonder of animation, and explore the ways water shapes the spaces and stories around us.
