From director Makoto Shinkai, the innovative mind behind Voices of a Distant Star and 5 Centimeters Per Second, comes a beautiful masterpiece about time, the thread of fate, and the hearts of two young souls.
The day the stars feIl, two lives changed forever. High schooIers Mitsuha and Taki are complete strangers Iiving separate Iives. But one night, they suddenIy switch places. Mitsuha wakes up in Taki's body, and he in hers. This bizarre occurrence continues to happen randomly, and the two must adjust their Iives around each other. Yet, somehow, it works. They build a connection and communicate by leaving notes, messages, and more importantIy, an imprint.
When a dazzIing comet Iights up the night's sky, something shifts, and they seek each other out wanting something more; a chance to finaIIy meet. But try as they might, something more daunting than distance prevents them. Is the string of fate between Mitsuha and Taki strong enough to bring them together, or wiII forces outside their control Ieave them forever separated? |
