‘Ponyo on a Cliff by the Sea’ to Close LA Film Fest

Ponyo will be the closing film of this year’s Los Angeles Film Festival on June 28. The festival runs from June 18-28, 2009. The story follows an ordinary boy named Sosuke (Frankie Jonas) and his friendship with Ponyo (Noah Cyrus), a goldfish who wishes to be human.

The Los Angeles Film Festival is also showing three live-action films from Japan: Tadashi Mori’s Panda Diary, Hirokazu Kore-eda’s Still Walking, and Koji Wakamatsu’s United Red Army.

As what we have mentioned earlier, Walt Disney Pictures will open the film throughout the United States on August 14.
