Synopsis
It’s summer, and Kenji, a young student who administers a virtual world called Oz –a sort of hyper-developed Facebook– must deal with two big problems: he has to pretend being the boyfriend of the prettiest girl in school in front of her big family, all gathered in a summer house; and he must fight a hacker who has penetrated Oz and is about to plunge civilization into chaos. The Girl Who Leapt Through Time’s director Mamoru Hosoda picks up Hayao Miyazaki’s testimony in Summer Wars, a film that ranges between a moving, funny naturalism and an exaggerated fantasy. The filmmaker builds his Oz world with white backgrounds and bursts of color, with rabbit-shaped warriors and huge black ogres, fantastic characters that echo the work of artist Takashi Murakami, with whom Hosoda worked in the past. Funny and emotional when it’s set in the family house, and extremely imaginative and beautiful when it dives in the parallel universe of Oz, Summer Wars is both an anime landmark and a sharp story about virtual reality.
