A beautiful and sad story, made me laugh and cry
Fun, fascinating, goofy exploration of environmental and conservationist themes using Japanese fables
Sad commentary on the loss of tradition and community, wrapped in great animation.
The devastation of our earth + big raccoon balls.
It's astonishing how this bizarre tale of shapeshifting raccoons can feel so down to earth.
An unexpectibaly good movie filled with lots of entertaining scenes
objectively the story, plot and animation are good, but i personally found it very long and i got disinterested and bored very fast
It has a good message about living along with nature, but the movie itself it's too slow, but it has good characters and plot.
A story about the local wildlife having to learn to coexist with humans and adapting in a ever changing world that leaves you thinking.
A cute little nature documentary about magic shapeshifting raccoons who try to save a forest with their gigantic magic gonads.
