Nineteen-year-old college student Hana meets a young man who sneaks into her classes for lessons and falls in love with him immediately. They soon start dating. One day, the man reveals his identity to Hana; he is a Wolfman and the only surviving descendant of the extinct Japanese wolf. Undeterred by this fact, Hana invites him to live with her. A year later, when Hana becomes pregnant, she decides not to visit a hospital out of fear that her child would be a wolf. Their daughter, Yuki, is thus born at home on a snowy day, along with her brother, Ame, who is born a year after her.
Wolf Children is one of the best anime films to be released in a long time. It's directed by the man who also made Summer Wars (2009) and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (2006), so your expectations runs high from the get-go. A rememberable and emotional journey full of heart.
Genre: Animation/Drama/Fantasy
