Porco Rosso

  • Silver City Cinema Oxide Street Broken Hill, NSW, 2880 Australia (map)

Take to the skies with Porco Rosso, a swooning, sun-drenched adventure where honor, freedom, and dogfights collide over the Adriatic Sea. From Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki comes a story about a cursed ace pilot with the face of a pig and the heart of a romantic—outflying air pirates, outsmarting rivals, and wrestling with the cost of choosing independence in a changing world. With breathtaking aerial battles, jazzy nostalgia, sharp wit, and surprising tenderness, Porco Rosso is a love letter to aviation, anti-fascist defiance, and the messy beauty of being human. If you’ve ever dreamed of open skies and living by your own code, this one’s for you. 🛩️❤️
