A magical fantasy that demands to be seen on the big screen. Miyazaki's supposedly final film for Studio Ghibli is a masterpiece that sums up the animation master's entire career.
Mahito, a young 12-year-old boy, struggles to settle in a new town after his mother's death. However, when a talking heron informs Mahito that his mother is still alive, he enters an abandoned tower in search of her, which takes him to another world. A semi-autobiographical fantasy from the mind of Hayao Miyazaki.
