Whisper Of The Heart (Studio Ghibli Collection) (DVD)

Shizuku is spending her last summer vacation in junior high school, reading and translating lyrics of popular foreign music into Japanese, daydreaming of becoming a writer. Lately she finds that all the books she chooses in the library have been previously checked out by the same boy, Seiji Amasawa - Shizuku wonders what kind of guy he is... Could it be that the obnoxious boy she stumbles into could be the guy who's been reading all those books? A touching love story with wonderful characters and beautiful artwork, Whisper Of The Heart was the first and only film directed by the late, Yoshifumi Kondo
the Studio Ghibli director seen as the natural successor to Hayao Miyazaki (who penned the script).
