The heroine is depicted in the newly-unveiled poster standing in front of an isolated door, holding a wooden chair, with water beneath her and ruins all around her.

"Suzume no Tojimari" has a literal translation of "Suzume's Locking-Up." It follows Suzume, a 17-year-old schoolgirl from the Kyushu region, who meets a young man looking for a strange door. They travel together and find an old door at an abandoned house in the mountains, and Suzume opens it. Suzume's discovery triggers a chain reaction that opens other mysterious doors across the country, wreaking havoc.

Suzume's journey across the country to locate and close these doors that are causing disaster is chronicled in the film.

This marks Makoto Shinkai's first film in three years. His most recent feature film, "Weathering With You," was released in 2019. Meanwhile, he released the popular anime film "Your Name" in 2016.
