Title: A Perfect Story for Children
Product review: Another delightful masterpiece from Animator Hayao Miyazaki. On her thirteenth birthday a young witch named Kiki must make her right of passage by going out into the world to live on her own for one year. Kiki picks a quaintly European seaside village as her destination and soars off on her broom. Her pet cat Jiji is her only companion. Like so many of the great Japanese film directors, Miyazaki's films achieve a contemplative beauty. There is an almost Zen like quality to the way in which he patiently allows his images to unfold. One event flows seamlessly to the next without the slightest trace of artifice. Miyazaki's unwillingness to rush the narrative allows the audience to share in Kiki's journey of self discovery. When the lights come up you'll feel as though you've also been away on a trip with an old friend.Preston McClear, author The Boy Under the Bed
