The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness @ SLIFF
Located in a Tokyo suburb, Studio Ghibli looks from the outside like a modest office building, but behind its doors some of the greatest creative talents in cinema have worked on such masterpieces as "Spirited Away," "Princess Mononoke," "Grave of the Fireflies," "My Neighbor Totoro," and "Ponyo." "The Kingdom of Dreams and Madness" goes inside the studio, offering unprecedented access to the work of producer Toshio Suzuki and world-renowned directors Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata. Shooting Miyazaki at work on "The Wind Rises" and Takahata making the upcoming "The Tale of the Princess Kaguya," director Mami Sunada reveals Ghibli as an enchantingly old-fashioned workshop, a place where Miyazaki -- perhaps the greatest animator in cinema history -- toils on his meticulous drawings while wearing a work apron and timing his animation with an analog stopwatch.
