Waiting with Makoto Shinkai

Writer-Director Makoto Shinkai makes beautiful films, obviously. But after watching his body of work, I noticed how his animation serves the theme of waiting or being present. This video essay focuses on his feature films: Your Name, The Garden of Words, Children Who Chase Lost Voices, 5 Centimeters Per Second, and The Place Promised In Our Early Days.
