Studio Ghibli has released the trailer for its long-awaited 2016 film The Red Turtle. The first movie to be released following Miyazaki’s retirement, fans have been waiting nervously to see what the studio will produce. The movie is a French/Japanese production which heightened fears of a Frankenstein-Ghibli movie, but this mesmerizing trailer should put those fears to rest.

If going to the cinema is a bit pricey, you don’t have to turn to the computer and sacrifice quality for cost: check our guide for snagging discount movie tickets, and you might even be able to stretch to some popcorn.
