Nippon Television "Super TV Information Frontline Exclusive Coverage of 15 Months! The Secrets of the Rumored Movie "My Neighbors the Yamadas""
Direction
Takahata's impossible vision: watercolour animation in a digital age.
Production
15 months of exclusive access watching genius slowly lose its mind.
