Makoto Shinkai : 2013
Kotonoha no niwa
Takao, a 15-year-old high school student, wants to follow his dream of designing and making footwear. By chance, whilst absconding from school, he encounters Yukino, a 27-year-old woman who seems to have withdrawn from the world. Then, without arranging the times, the two start to see each other again and again, but only on rainy days. The story embraces the original Japanese understanding of love, or koi, as something of a solitary sadness. Soon we discover that as their friendship deepens, the consequences will put that friendship to the ultimate test. Visually stunning, with the most realistic cinematic lighting effects and focus shifts, and a rich level of detail almost indistinguishable from live footage. Makoto Shinkai's enchanting anime feature premiered at Australia's Gold Coast Film Festival 2013.
