By default, the DVD starts with Chapter One. You will need to use the Menu key to access the menu.

Chapter One starts with a visual tour of part of the museum interior and exterior.

The interior shots were done both when the museum was closed and open, while the exterior shots were done during operating hours.

Comparisons are made between the museum's architecture and the films of Studio Ghibli, including a clip from "Sprited Away", showing how the multiple bridges, levels and soaring central hall of the museum reflect the bathhouse in the movie.

There are clips of Miyazaki creating the storyboards for the museum, as well as stills of those storyboards and shots of the actual interior.

The Chapter ends with comments by Takahata on the museum and it's design elements and themes.

Chapter Four returns to the discussion with Takahata and Miyazaki and how Japanese cities in earlier centuries did not "build up", like many European towns did.

Suzuki then goes on to comment about the architecture of Himeji Castle, and there is a video tour of the castle.

Chapter Five is titled "Miyazaki's Location Scouting in Europe".

Suzuki talks about Miyazaki's trip to the port city of Visby, on Gotland Island in Sweden to do location scouting for "Pippi Longstocking" and how, while "Pippi" was never produced, the pictures Miyazaki took were used to create the port city of Koriko in "Kiki's Delivery Service".

There is also some footage of Miyazaki in Paris for the 2001 premiere of "Spirited Away".

Chapter Six is a video tour of Genoa, Italy, where they visited in 1976 for "From the Apennines to the Andes" and more discussion on how Miyazaki incorporated his visit to this city into the production.

Included are scenes from "From the Apennines to the Andes" and some of his sketches.

Chapter Nine is more discussion about how the Ghibli museum was laid out.

Chapter Ten is titled "Why Are Miyazaki's Spaces So Fascinating?" and talks about how the museum building itself is not just a static structure designed to house the exhibits within, but is in it's own way an exhibit. They discuss how each room has it's own purpose and how the design seeks to make you want to explore further.

Chapter Eleven is a tour of the museum, noting Takahata's impressions of each area.

Chapter Twelve is the final chapter, and a general wrap-up, with some beautiful views of the museum at dusk.
