Though this was Hayao Miyazaki's last animated film, it was still filled with details that made it beautiful. The film's story deals with a plane designer, the Great Kanto earthquake, the Great Depression, and Japan's descent into militarism and oppression. What Studio Ghibli film are we talking about?

The Wind Rises is set in daunting circumstances, where planes become weapons and dreams turn into nightmares. Nevertheless, there's still pure creativity and imagination. During his childhood, shortsighted Jiro realizes that he can never be a pilot but a career in engineering will provide him with enough wings. Unfortunately, those wings end up serving Japan during WWII.
