Essentials by Director: Hayao Miyazaki

Master anime director Hayao Miyazaki uses his films to showcase his passions and obsessions, such as the freedom of flight, our relationship to nature, and the urgency of pacifism. More often than not, Miyazki’s epics feature a young heroine who must overcome daunting odds. My Neighbor Totoro and Spirited Away are bonafide children’s classics, while Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind and Princess Mononoke remain as some of the most politically charged anime ever created. Yet for all his profound themes, Miyazaki’s work remains consistently accessible, making his gorgeously animated films a delight for both kids and adults.
