Capsule Description

On a Christmas Eve, three Tokyo homeless -- mid-aged alcoholic man Gin, high school runaway girl Miyuki, and former drag queen Hana -- were searching dumpsters and trash bags for possible Christmas gifts for themselves, when cries from a baby drew their attention. Believing this was a gift from God, Hana, who couldn't have a baby of "her" own, vowed to take care of the abandoned baby girl and together they began searching for baby's mother.

OMG I love this movie! It's a wonderful, quirky, heart-warming story that highlights everything awesome about Satoshi Kon's work. Mouse 15:39, 5 December 2011 (PST)
