DIE LETZTEN GLÜHWÜRMCHEN(1989)

Der wahrscheinlich schönste Anime von Studio Ghibli – und zeitgleich traurigste Film überhaupt. Eine japanische Familie während des Zweiten Weltkriegs: Der Vater zieht in den Kampf, die Mutter wird krank und die beiden Kinder, ein 14-jähriger Junge und seine vierjährige Schwester, sind auf sich alleine gestellt. Der harte Überlebenskampf angesichts der Essensknappheit in Krisenzeiten veranschaulicht die Tragik des Krieges wie kein anderer Anti-Kriegsfilm.
