Never-Ending Man - Miyazaki Hayao

Hayao Miyazaki, a name that is inextricably linked with the world-famous animation studio 'Ghibli'. Together with Isao Takahata, he founded the famous studio. At the time, no one could have guessed that her works would one day become known nationally and internationally and that they would be widely regarded as the epitome of anime, especially abroad. But with films like 'My Neighbor Totoro' (1988) or 'Chihiro's Journey to Enchanted Land' (2001), Miyazaki and with him 'Studio Ghibli' have burned themselves unforgotten into the hearts of fans. But Miyazaki, like most geniuses, is also considered a difficult character who not only subjects himself to the harshest criticism again and again...

The documentary 'Never-Ending Man' (2016) by Kaku Arakawa follows Miyazaki Hayao in his search for meaning in retirement and his inevitable return to the world of anime. This is also the first time he comes into contact with 3D animation himself and suddenly slips into an unfamiliar role: that of the beginner.
