Studio Ghibli retrospective comes to the Festival do Rio
This year, the Festival do Rio has the pleasure to announce a homage to one of the most well-loved animation studios in the world – Studio Ghibli. Created in 1985 by duo Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata, the Japanese production company has already made over 20 feature-length films and looks as if it will produce many more.
The now classic Spirited Away (2001) was awarded the Oscar for best animated picture and the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival. Ghibli's successes include My Neighbor Totoro, Princess Mononoke, Howl’s Moving Castle, Ponyo, Porco Rosso, and many more.
The Festival do Rio has a special event Studio Ghibli – The Madness and the Dreams, which will explore nine Ghibli films, a selection of the old favourites as well as some less well-known productions. The films being screened are:
