Marathon Studio Ghibli in TENOHA Milano

Author: SaiKaiAngel

Studio Ghibli, Inc. is a Japanese animated film studio. Its anime is known and appreciated throughout the world.

Founded in 1985 by the famous director Hayao Miyazaki together with his colleague Isao Takahata, it was originally founded in 1983 with the beginning of Nausicaä in the Wind Valley (1984), previously serialized in 1982 as a manga by Tokuma Shoten.
“Ghibli” is the name of a hot wind used by Italian pilots in North Africa in World War II and their reconnaissance airplanes. Hayao Miyazaki, who has always had a passion for old aircraft, decided to use this word as a name for the new studio with the phrase: “Let’s blow a hot wind in the world of Japanese animation!”

By pure chance, she enters Howl’s Wandering Castle and, hiding her true identity, gets hired as a cleaning lady. This “old lady”, as mysterious as she is dynamic, will soon manage to give new life to the old dwelling inhabited only by a young apprentice, Markl, and the one who runs the Castle, Calcifer, the fire demon. More energetic than ever, Sophie performs miracles. What fabulous fate awaits her? What will happen between her and Howl?

The three of them cross the bed of a dry river and find themselves in a city composed entirely of restaurants and clubs, and on a counter they find a rich buffet. Parents sit down and start eating, thinking they will pay when someone shows up. Chihiro meanwhile explores the area and finds a large spa complex. A young boy, Haku, orders her to leave, but on her way back she discovers that her parents have become pigs and that she can’t cross the flooded river.
