2013 | DCP| JPN | D: Hayao Miyazaki
English dubbed

Unlike Miyazaki’s fantasy-driven animations, The Wind Rises reimagines the story of real-life aircraft engineer Jiro Horikoshi, who designed Japanese fighter planes used in the Second World War. Responsible for innovative breakthroughs like the Zero, Horikoshi becomes troubled by the use of his designs for war.

Miyazaki takes on breathtaking animation challenges in this thought-provoking portrait of passion, sacrifice and the price of pursuing a dream.

‘…a classic in the making: viewers will be grappling for a long time with the profound, troubling questions it raises’ – The Sydney Morning Herald
