The 1981 Japanese film Mobile Suit Gundam II: Soldiers of Sorrow (機動戦士ガンダム II 哀・戦士編) will play in Pittsburgh on October 16 and 20, part of the three-part AXCN Gundam Fest showing the films compiled from the initial Gundam TV series.
With evacuees from Side 7 onboard, the White Base crosses the Pacific Ocean and heads west towards the continent of Eurasia. Amidst that journey filled with battle, Amuro has a fight with Bright and runs away, suffering from the deaths of Matilda, who he had feelings for, and Ryu, who was like a big brother to him. The White Base lands at the Belfast base in Ireland. It’s then that Char appears, having stepped back from the front lines. With that, Amuro and Char end up clashing in the battle surrounding the Earth Federation Headquarters of Jaburo.It plays locally, in Japanese with English subtitles, at the AMC Loews Waterfront and the Cinemark in Robinson, and tickets are available online. The third compilation film will play here later this month.
