[ Story ]
A film by maestro Miyazaki Hayao, who won Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards for Spirited Away. It presents a finely crafted portrayal of the dreams, reality, and romantic fortunes of a young aircraft designer obsessed with airplanes, a character reverently based on two real-life figures: Zero fighter aircraft designer Horikoshi Jiro, and the author of the novel "Kaze Tachinu", Hori Tatsuo.
Jiro (voice: Anno Hideaki), who has loved airplanes since he was a boy, enrolls at a university in Tokyo to achieve his dream of becoming an aircraft designer. One day on board a train, he has a chance meeting with a girl named Nahoko.
