We first posted about A NEW DAWN—an original anime film that’s being made as a Japanese/French co-production between companies Asmik Ace and Miyu Productions—back in April 2024, and now a fresh preview is here for a look at what writer and director Yoshitoshi Shinomiya (background artist for Garden of Words and Your Name.) has in store for us.
The Japanese title is Hanarokusho ga Akeru Hi ni (On the day when Paris Green dawns), and it’s still set to premiere sometime this year. For now, there’s a new teaser trailer and visual showcasing the feature, as well as word that Riku Hagiwara is in the lead as Keitaro Obinata alongside Kotone Furukawa as Kaoru Shikimori.
A NEW DAWN Trailer
Here’s how the Annecy festival—which selected the film as one of five in various stages of production globally for he Animation Day showcase in May 2024—describes the story:
A NEW DAWN Plot
The Obinata Fireworks Shop factory is getting prepared for an administrative action for confiscation tomorrow. It has been six years since Keitaro has been holed up in a closed-down factory creating fireworks by himself, chasing after an illusion of his father who vanished. It is a story about three young people who overcome the extreme weather conditions, disasters and environmental problems imposed on them and establish their own identities.
