Under the slogan of "Tokyo becoming the hub of anime," the festival will screen works of high quality and originality from around the world in Tokyo. The festival aims to promote exchanges with anime lovers around the world, to provide creators and audiences with stimulation and inspiration, and to transmit a new wave of animation from Tokyo to the rest of the world based on such excitement and stimulation. The anime "SPY x FAMILY," which has been selected for screening, is a spy comedy based on the manga series by Endo Tatsuya, serialized in Shueisha's "Shonen Jump +." Season 1 was broadcast from April 2022, and received great support both in Japan and abroad. The production of a movie version has also been announced, and its future development is also attracting attention. In the program, the first episode "Operation Strix," the second episode "Secure a Wife" and the third episode "Prepare for the Interview" from Season 1 will be screened at the theater. In addition, the "Frédéric Back 100th Birthday Special Program" will screen works by Canadian animator Frédéric Back, whom director Takahata Isao called "my mentor”. After the screening, Élise Labbé, Chief of Festivals and Theatrical Screenings at the National Film Board of Canada, will take the stage to talk about the appeal of his works. "TAAF2023 Talk & Talk" will feature talks by the festival's participating creators, who will delve deeply into the appeal of their works and themselves.
