If you loved Se levanta el viento, try El niño y la garza
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Hayao Miyazaki, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Animation / Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Se levanta el viento, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El niño y la garza is
Rural Japan, wartime, a gray heron's call. A teenage boy struggles to adjust to his new home, a stepmother who resembles his deceased mother, and the mysterious heron that haunts him. Miyazaki's final film is a contemplative exploration of grief and identity.
