The Wind Rises (風立ちぬ; Kaze Tachinu) is a 2013 Anime movie directed by Hayao Miyazaki. The young Jiro Horikoshi decides that he wants to build airplanes. In a dream, he met the Italian aircraft engineer Caproni and has brought him one of his wisdom: It is much nicer to construct aircraft than to fly them. For this reason, the now-grown Jiro begins some years later to study engineering at the University of Tokyo. On a train ride, he meets the handsome Naoko, his great love.
