From visionary director Masaaki Yuasa (The Night is Short, Walk on Girl, Devilman Crybaby<\/em>) comes a deeply emotional new film that applies\nhis trademark visual ingenuity to a tale of romance, grief and self-discovery.

Just as they\nbecome inseparable, Minato loses his life in an accident at sea. Hinako is so\ndistraught that she can no longer even look at the ocean, but one day she sings\na song that reminds her of their time together, and Minato appears in the\nwater. From then on, she can summon him in any watery surface as soon as she\nsings their song, but can the two really remain together forever? And what is\nthe real reason for Minato\u2019s sudden reappearance?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
