Grave of the Fireflies

火垂るの墓

Seita, a teenage boy, and his young sister Setsuko are orphaned when firebombing destroys their home in Kobe during the final months of World War II. After a strained stay with a distant aunt, the two strike out on their own, setting up shelter in an abandoned hillside bunker. With no family, no ration card, and a war still grinding on around them, Seita scrounges for food while trying to keep Setsuko's world as small and safe as he can.
