12-year-old Mei grew up with her grandparents in the mountains, but now lives with her parents in the city. Her parents constantly fight and she ignored at home. Mei withdraws into her own world and imagination. One day Mei meets transfer student Lee. Mei takes a liking to Lee who seems as withdrawn to the world as Mei. After Mei saves Lee from bullies their friendship becomes real. As Mei home life worsens and her parents announce their divorce, Mei turns to Lee and plan their escape.
You could think that Starry Starry Night is another cute high school drama, but you'd also be dead wrong. It's a story of a girl who's being torn from her childhood and is forced to face the harsh reality of adults and the fact that love isn't something that always lasts. Mei's fantasies comes to life with beautiful animations and in a great way enhances how lonely she is, because if she can't be comforted by her own parents, then maybe she can feel better with a blue, wooden elephant by her side.
