Gibli and Miyazaki's constant companion, discusses on quite everyday topics: first love, growing up, nostalgia for carefree childhood and seeking answers to the questions of the present in the actions of the past.

It would seem that absolutely unsuitable material for the studio, known to many children's cartoons like "My neighbor Totoro." Nevertheless, the picture was recognized as the top of Japanese animation, as well as the highest grossing national film of 1991. And the story of the emotional experiences of the young girl Taeko to this day can be considered one of the most accurate and rare representatives of a realistic anime made for a female audience.
