Our suggestions
An anthology of three original shorts written and directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, Yoshiyuki Momose and Akihiko Yamashita.
"The level of quality achieved by Japanese animations is becoming increasingly spectacular. 'Chiisana eiyû: Kani to tamago to tômei ningen' is no exception. The animated worlds it presents, especially in its first segment, are captivating. The main moral is undoubtedly for the little ones, but the plot also resonates in the minds of adults. Through the characters, lessons are taught about heroism in everyday life, despite the challenges it presents."
