The Asylum Session is a 3D CG film coming from CoMix Wave and director Tact Aoki (who also worked on Romanov's groovy anime Catblue: Dynamite). The story follows the trials and coming-of-age of teenaged boys and girls in the distant future. In this era, the development of civilization has stopped and even declined. Hiyoko is a runaway girl who goes to live in tents with other people at a stadium nicknamed "Asylum". There, she meets Akira, a leader of a band of street children. Profiteering police want to tear down the stadium, so its denizens create a street culture event called "The Asylum Session" to counter those plans (ANN description). The movie premieres in a couple of theatres from Tokyo and Osaka during summer 2009. Also, fans of Aya Hirano (Suzumiya Haruhi, Lucky Star, Kiddy Grade) should know that she will voice the lead character, Hiyoko.
