→ Don't miss the museum's Hayao Miyazaki exhibition, now on view!
In conjunction with the Academy Museum’s landmark exhibition Hayao Miyazaki, the museum will wrap up its complete retrospective of the Academy Award-winning filmmaker’s feature work. One of the cofounders of Studio Ghibli, along with director Isao Takahata and producer Toshio Suzuki, Miyazaki has forged a singular path as a storyteller. Feats of meticulous, hand-drawn mastery, Miyazaki’s films teem with visual imagination and profound stories that explore themes of self-discovery, pacifism, environmentalism, and humanity’s capacity for both invention and destruction. Also screening in this series are two recent documentaries that illuminate the world of Miyazaki: The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness goes inside Studio Ghibli and recalls the cinematic journeys of Miyazaki and Takahata; Never-Ending Man: Hayao Miyazaki offers an intimate portrait of the director at work on a unique film project.
