Watched this touching movie with sis today...the plot is fairly simple but the bond shared between the boy and the baby fox was so strong that audience will be easily moved.
The baby fox cannot see, hear and even bark initially. So the boy, Taichi names it Helen, after Helen Keller, the first blind, deaf and mute woman who was able to communicate using the sign language. Helen responds to Taichi's devoted caring efforts and begins to strive for live, in spite of her frail body.
Scenic and picturesque Hokkaido served as the shooting ground of the movie...breath-taking scenes especially those with flowers were my favourites.
Quoteworthy scene:
Vet: “你会写辛苦的辛吗？”
Vet:“加了太一 (boy) 的一，就变成幸福的幸。”
Vet:“是太一带给海伦 (fox) 幸福。”
