The future of Studio Ghibli is uncertain.
As time moves forward, the key players are getting older and many have passed away. This took a massive toll on Hayao Miyazaki, who was making The Boy and the Heron at the time.
When the feature released, no one could quite grasp it’s depths immediately. Many people said they had to watch it multiple times to start to find meaning. Even Miyazaki is quoted that he wasn’t sure what he was making throughout the production.
This is my attempt to dig into how The Boy and the Heron spoke to me, delving behind the scenes in Studio Ghibli as they spent 7 years making this, and seeing the uncertain but promising future that is in store for the studio.
