Screening: Green Days
September 26, 2024 7:00 pm 9:00 pm Wexner Center for the Arts
A beautiful, hand-drawn animated film about the glorious, awkward and delicate experience of growing up.
Set in the late 1970s, Green Days is a coming-of-age story of three Korean high schoolers. Aspiring runner Yi-rang gives up the sport after taking an intentional fall to avoid the embarrassment of losing. Soon she meets Cheol-soo, who dreams of becoming an astronaut, and Soo-min, a transfer student from Seoul. Together, they navigate friendship, romance, hopes, aspirations, and growing pains. A Q&A with the director follows the screening. In Korean with English subtitles. (98 mins., DCP)
Join us for a reception at 6 PM in the Wexner Center lobby before the screening and hear Ahn Jae-huun in person at 5 pm. The day’s events are presented in conjunction with the annual, citywide Cartoon Crossroads Columbus festival.
