A quiet stroll through the imaginary world of Iblard, originally depicted in the paintings by Naohisa Inoue, influenced by Impressionism and Surrealism.
Direction
Inoue literally painted every frame. Obsessive king behavior.
Cinematography
Impressionism that actually moves—Monet wishes.
Director
Naohisa Inoue
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Inoue's paintings hang in the Ghibli Museum; Miyazaki called him 'the only artist I envy.'
This was meant to be experienced on loop—Inoue wanted viewers to wander in and out like a gallery.
