The Love the Glove Film Series’ Animation Celebration concludes with the film that is considered to have begun the world’s animé obsession; Katsuhiro Ôtomo’s incredible Akira!
2019. Thirty one years after being destroyed during World War III, Tokyo (now 'Neo-Tokyo') has been rebuilt and is a thriving metropolis. Shotaro Kaneda is the leader of a biker gang. His friend Tetsuo is injured in an accident and taken to a top-secret government facility. He develops telekinetic powers but decides to use them for evil rather than good. He has the same powers as Akira, the force that destroyed Tokyo in 1988, and now it appears that history will repeat itself.
