But with the help of flashbacks, it offers enough to help viewers appreciate what she's been through, and to acknowledge the significance of her journey going forward.

A film that delicately deals with the emotional connections between people - both living and dead - and how survivors heal and grow after trauma, seems perfectly suited for this moment.

Rated: 4/5

I'm sorry that I didn't like it better... I couldn't get very much out of it.

To begin it’s KyoAni. Animation was spectacular, at some points of the film some of visuals looked like if they real life photographs. Very well paced and written perfectly. Great movie for everyone and anyone.

One of the greatest animes I've seen in YEARS, found this show while I was getting back into it, It's definitely a good start for someone who's never watched an anime.
