7x7 editors reveal the hottest events going on this week and give you a head's up on tickets to grab in advance (before they sell out)!

Takashi Murakami's Jellyfish Eyes

The first live-action film from internationally prolific Japanese artist Takashi Murakami is finally making a stop in San Francisco. Jellyfish Eyes – set in a post-Fukushima world – tells the story of Masashi, a young boy who moves to the Japanese countryside in the wake of disaster, and the "monster" he encounters and befriends (see above). The film combines Murakami's trademark anime-style aesthetic with broader themes of social change, self-empowerment, and hope.
