Suzume

Makoto Shinkai's Suzume brought his signature visual grandeur and emotional storytelling to Nairobi for an unforgettable evening in 2024. Fans arrived hours early, and the packed auditorium buzzed with anticipation. The film follows Suzume, a teenage girl who discovers mysterious doors across Japan that serve as gateways to disaster. She teams up with a young man named Souta to close the doors and prevent catastrophe — embarking on a road trip across the country that becomes something far more personal. The Movie Jabber screening was one of the highest-attended in our history, with fans lining up from early morning. The post-credits discussion ran well past midnight.
