Released in 2013.
Plot line: From Academy Award(R)-winning filmmaker Hayao Miyazaki (Best Animated Feature, SPIRITED AWAY, 2002) comes a spellbinding movie beyond compare. Jiro dreams of flying and designing beautiful airplanes, inspired by the famous Italian aeronautical designer Caproni. Nearsighted and unable to be a pilot, he becomes one of the world's most accomplished airplane designers, experiencing key historical events in an epic tale of love, perseverance and the challenges of living and making choices in a turbulent world.
I loved so many things about this Japanese animated movie. It's the personal story of Jiro and his passions for planes set within a historical context. I loved this window into Japanese culture and aviation history.
You can see the movie trailer here. If you have yet to see it, this is a movie worth watching.
