Background : The Films of Isao Takahata
Isao Takahata remains Japan – and indeed, one of the world’s greatest living filmmakers. One half of the famed Studio Ghibli he co-founded with his renowned partner, Hayao Miyazaki, Takahata has preserved – unlike the much more prolific Hayao – a rather measured, even leisurely pace at which he finishes films. As a result, while his filmography is not elaborate or extensive, it is permeated by titles of rare feeling: a preference for depth, over breadth. The month-long retrospective presented by Lightcube Film Society at Perch will cover Takahata’s major achievements, a couple of his lesser known films and finally, the film that influenced him to become an animator.
