In fact, Anna in the movie was not adopted by an old couple in a seaside village, but went to a small seaside village to recuperate. When I watch Ghibli’s works, I often don’t go for the plot, but because I like the beautiful pictures. It feels like a stream flows slowly, delicate and beautiful, and the scenes of the seaside village are really beautiful. Just like the small seaside village I saw, it is really the scene in reality moved into the animation. In fact, Fukuoka is also such a small town. Unconsciously, the seaside has become an indispensable part of life.
Anna is closed from the heart, does not want to communicate with others, and regards painting as her only sustenance. She has too many knots, but because of the warm people around her, she slowly learns to share happiness and unhappiness, and becomes sunny. She has learned to live hard and work hard. Accept the care of people around you. Such a heart-warming little story should always linger in my heart, because I am greedy for this kind of slow-paced beauty.
