Kokuriko-zaka kara (2011)
A touching story of pure childhood love, from the greatest of studios
6 May 2024
This movie brought me to tears and made me want to relive my childhood again. The animation as all Ghibli movies is amazing. From a sea faring town myself this was very touching and accurately depicts family dynamics as people are gone at sea for months at a time. Seeing the children cope with this in different ways really struck a cord with me. I was also enthralled with the scenes of in Japan the 1960's as that is not a time period i could imagine Japan in. It is wonderful set building and I loved the design of the Latin quarters. Finally the house umi is from on top of the hill made me want to live there the rest of my life.
