A trilogy of films that cover the arc of the manga called the Golden Age. It’s an essential family film Berserk Trilogy: The Golden Age – (Toshiyuki Kubooka, 2012 – 2013)Īnd we abandon everyday life and magical realism to enter the peculiar way that Berserk has of reinterpreting medieval fantasy. There’s humor and a lot of material to reflect on in a film that tells us about the importance of effort, responsibility, honesty and, ultimately, self-sufficiency as a path to personal well-being. But he does it with pace and with a great capacity to reduce the scale and generate tension through labor problems.

Kiki’s Delivery Service – (Hayao Miyazaki, 1989)Īs we have already said, we are not going to dwell too much on Ghibli, but we will make a couple of stops to take a look at some works that we think are essential and that do not enjoy the fame and recognition of the most awarded works of the production company.
