A young student dreams of orchestrating the perfect romantic meet-cute with his crush, The Girl With the Black Hair, and searches for her across town.
Meanwhile, the girl herself has a series of strange encounters with local characters as she roams through an abstract, bustling night in Kyoto – taking in everything from pub crawls to book fairs to impromptu musical happenings.
Director Masaaki Yuasa is a true maverick of Japanese animation, and this colourful caper is the perfect canvas for his freewheeling, eccentric and exuberant animation style.
