After this month's Scotland Loves Anime, November also brings with it a notable place to watch some of the hottest new anime on the big screen in the form of the Leeds International Film Festival, and this year's line-up is no slouch in that regard as it brings with it a number of notable films.

Tickets are available for each film at the link above at a cost of £8.50 each (£6.50 for concessions), or a pass for the entire Animation Day (which also includes Spanish film Psychonauts) can be purchased for £25 (£20 for concessions).

Beyond this, Friday 4th November sees the modern classic Redline hit the big screen at Leeds Town Hall's Victoria Hall from 7PM (tickets can be found here), before 9:55PM sees Interstella 5555 screened at the same venue, with tickets available here.
