Another great film by Miyazaki that gives life to troll totoro, and only children can see.
Poetry reigns in every movie and image of this master of Japanese.
The father of two beautiful girls, who blindly believes the fact that the two daughters have seen in the new home of the little ghosts, giving us now a portrait of Japanese culture that believes in spirituality and legends.
great bond between family members and friends.
