Otherwise a nice video.
Story reminds me a bit of Totoro, the setting is very similar to Only Yesterday. I think the two Ghibli grandpas watched this film together on the couch.
Very simple, easy and sweet film about a new teacher who arrives in a small village, takes a class under his wing and teaches them the value of nature, which eventually results in the local creek being protected and game fishermen no longer being able to do their thing. It is not very profound in any case.
Very free and flowery. Lots of green, great surroundings there too, and all very innocent. Although after the 2/3 mark there is still some extra drama in the film. The Ghibli gentlemen did a bit better there. This film is just a bit too much drama, sometimes a bit too noisy for such a quiet film.
Fortunately also nice and short, certainly could not have been longer. Entertaining and a nice trip, but that is all it is.
3.0*

A sweet film indeed. Anyway, a nice atmosphere with beautiful images of the countryside that really make it come to life. The story is also fine. The acting is not very special and it all remains a bit distant. Also those songs in between are a bit strange. Also, it all remains a bit superficial so that it does not stick. Sufficient though because of the sometimes beautiful pictures and nice sounds. 3.0*

Very light-hearted feel-good film from Taiwan about a small school somewhere in the countryside. Everyone has their own concerns, but all in all the community lives together very harmoniously. There is a positive vibe about the film and that is further supported by a cheerful soundtrack. There is also singing every now and then, about Cola even ...
The children of the village get up to mischief and when they have to do an investigation ordered by the government or the teacher, they get to work very diligently. The film also has a humorous side. It depends on how you look at it: endearing or annoying ...
It was nice to see it sometimes. I expected more between the teacher and his female colleague, but that remained flat. The attention went (more than rightly by the way) to the children.
