A devastating meditation on the human cost of war, this animated tale follows Seita, a teenager charged with the care of his younger sister, Setsuko, after an American firebombing during World War II separates the two children from their parents. Their tale of survival is as heartbreaking as it is true to life. The siblings rely completely on each other and struggle against all odds to stay together and stay alive.

This movie was great, except the ending... Maybe they could have had him go to the moms grave with the sisters ashes for the ending?! Like he said he was going to do HALFWAY THROUGH THE FREAKING MOVIE?! Oh man. Ghibli movies are amazing, but yeah, this ending feels abrupt, and not thought through.
