Description

Whisper of the Heart is a 1995 Japanese animated coming-of-age film directed by Yoshifumi Kondō and written by Hayao Miyazaki. The film tells the story of a young girl named Shizuku Tsukishima who discovers her love for writing and meets a boy named Seiji Amasawa who dreams of becoming a luthier. As they become friends and inspire each other to pursue their passions, they also face the challenges of growing up and figuring out their place in the world.

The film is notable for its realistic portrayal of everyday life in Tokyo, as well as its emphasis on the importance of pursuing one's dreams and finding one's own path in life. It features a memorable soundtrack by Yuji Nomi and includes several songs in English, including "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver.

Whisper of the Heart was a critical and commercial success in Japan, and is considered one of the most beloved films in the Studio Ghibli catalog. Although it was not directed by Miyazaki himself, it is often cited as one of his most personal and heartfelt works, reflecting his own experiences as a young artist and his belief in the power of imagination and creativity.
