Of all the films that i have seen, this one is by far the most remarkable of Miyazaki Sensei. For those who still haven't forgotten is masterpieces since the 80's, you will feel proud of this one. A convergence of the imaginary world of Miyazaki and the reality of the world. It's addictive, and draws us to a world where wishes can come true despite the hard struggles of life, even the hardest ones. Nonetheless it is a very emotive film, and i hope all of those who see this last masterpiece Miyazaki Sensei find in their hearts the will to make their dreams come true, even when the world seems to crumble at your feets.
