ANIME SERIES: AFTER NATURE
ANIME SERIES: AFTER NATURE
Five Japanese anime spanning four decades (1984–2024) explore how ecology, technology, memory, and climate reshape the worlds we inhabit. After Nature explores worlds where the landscape is no longer predictable, but a site of mediation, uncertainty, and continual transformation. Programmed by WLA Sawtelle Neighborhood Council.
