The animator is “shown as a passionate artisan, a steadfast trailblazer, and a father butting heads with his son” according to the documentary’s description. The documentary will also cover the effects of the Fukushima nuclear disaster, which occurred during the 2011 production of From Up on Poppy Hill, on the animation team and the relationship between father and son. Recently, Studio Ghibli films also hit Netflix for the first time, released in several batches. (Let’s just hope this doesn’t mean any live-action remakes are headed our way in the future.)
