GKIDS is bringing Mamoru Oshii’s beloved film Angel’s Egg to North American theaters for the first time ever.

Announced today, the release coincides with the film’s 40th anniversary in 2025. The film will get a previously announced 4k restoration, which will be supervised by Oshii. Released in 1985, the film found Oshii working with artist Yoshitaka Amano, who is best known for their work on Speed Racer, Gatchaman, and Final Fantasy.

A synopsis for Angel’s Egg reads:

In an underwater city, a young girl takes care of a large egg she holds carefully in her arms – a treasure that she believes is an angel’s egg. A boy with a gun arrives in search of a bird he saw in his dream. At first it seems as if feelings of sympathy are developing between the two. Then, one night, the boy crushes her precious egg.
