LITTLE AMELIE OR THE CHARACTER OF RAIN

Amélie et la métaphysique des tubes

When you’re three years old, you see everything and understand nothing.

For the first years of her life, Amélie never makes a sound. But when her grandmother visits and offers a miraculous bite of chocolate, Amélie suddenly awakens to all the world's wonders. As she explores her home in post-war Japan, Amélie forms a close bond with her family's housekeeper, Nishio-san, and discovers new delights in every flower petal, koi pond, and raindrop. Adapted from the autobiographical novel by Amélie Nothomb and brought to life in the completely original animated style of directors Mailys Vallade and Liane-Cho Han, LITTLE AMÉLIE OR THE CHARACTER OF RAIN tells a tender, poignant and visually stunning story about the healing power of human connection.
