IN THIS CORNER OF THE WORLD is as soft as its brown-and-green palette, as romantic as its perpetually blushing protagonist...

An elegant reminder that we can never forget what life during wartime does to the human soul.

Like many other anime features, this one isn't exactly for the kids. Then again, it can't be any more detrimental to young minds than something like The Emoji Movie.

"Corner" is a deeply sympathetic tale, using the possibilities of animation not just to pique curiosity, but to devastate.

[Suzu's] life is treated as thoroughly unexceptional ... except of course it isn't. Besides a heart full of (hesitant) love and a soul full of (bashful) virtue, she has the artist's drive to capture the passing world

[T]his Japanese feature is a low-key triumph, a surprisingly affecting epic of the everyday written and directed by Sunao Katabuchi, a protégé of Hayao Miyazaki...

Rating: 4/5 --
It has jaw-droppingly gorgeous settings, in which all the buildings are depicted with full accuracy, as are the homes of the peasant families who live on a mountain slope, overlooking the (largely wooden) city.

Product Description:
A young woman named Suzu (voiced by Rena Nounen) moves from Hiroshima to the Japanese countryside to be with her new husband Shusaku (Yoshimasa Hosoya). As World War II rages, she must provide for her family with limited rations while Shusaku fights in the Navy. But when she learns of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, she struggles to find a reason to go on living. Directed by Sunao Katabuchi, this anime drama was adapted from a manga series of the same name by Fumiyo Kono.
