Hayao Miyazaki's magnificent return to cinema after a decade, "The Boy and the Heron", won the Oscar for Best Animation. The film tells a story set during the Second World War. Mahito's adventure, which begins with the loss of his mother, evolves to a different dimension with his encounter with a heron bird in the town where he moves in with his father. This profound fantasy about growing up and grieving combines Miyazaki's mastery, stunning visuals and a mysterious atmosphere to offer viewers an unforgettable experience.
