Plot
His directing debut, a commercial failure.
Sinekatalog’s take
Isao Takahata's directing debut was a commercial failure, but it opened a new door for animation with its mature story, shifting group of characters and strong sense of community. Its design and ambition show where Studio Ghibli's path began.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
