Hayao Miyazaki is one of Japan's greatest and most influential animation directors and storytellers, whose whimsical and breathtaking works have won critical and popular acclaim. We are excited to bring his films back to the big screen throughout May & June!
Originally thought to be a swan song for Miyazaki before last years release of “The Boy and the Heron”, “The Wind Rises” is one of the filmmakers for personal projects.
Jiro dreams of flying and designing beautiful airplanes, inspired by the famous Italian aeronautical designer Caproni. Nearsighted and unable to be a pilot, he becomes one of the world’s most accomplished airplane designers, experiencing key historical events in an epic tale of love, perseverance and the challenges of living and making choices in a turbulent world.
Note: the following screening will be in the Original Japanese with English subtitles
