A look at the life of Jiro Horikoshi, the man who designed Japanese fighter planes during World War II.
This decades-spanning epic from maestro Hayao Miyazaki is his most unique films to date. Inspired by the stories of Jiro Horikoshi, visionary designer of one the most beautiful airplanes in history — the famed Zero fighter — and the writer Tatsuo Hori, this tale of love and perseverance in a turbulent world is brought to life by the vivid animation of Studio Ghibli. An excellent annimation from Studio Ghibli in the unmistakable style, direction and writing of Hayao Miyazaki. Just as with any other Japanese movie, watch it with the original Japanese voices. Five popcorns.
