Plot
Inspired by the fairy tale "The Little Mermaid" by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen, the film tells the story of a a young mermaid, Ponyo, who runs away from her home in the sea. She gets stranded on the shore and is rescued by Sosuke, a five-year-old boy who lives on a cliff. However, they must part ways because of Ponyo's father, Fujimoto.
Notes
- "Ponyo on the Cliff" eschews computer graphics altogether and instead uses primal hand-drawings. There were a record high 170,000 hand-drawn pictures to animate the characters and it took the one and a half years for the 70 staff members to draw.
