A new heartwarming Japanese animation hits Thai cinemas

The Japanese animation Okko's Inn is adapted from the best-selling children's novels written by Hiroko Reijo and illustrated by Asami. The film tells the story of a girl called Oriko Seki or Okko (voiced by Seiran Kobayashi) who becomes an orphan after losing her parents in an accident. Okko moves to live with her grandmother who runs a traditional Japanese inn in the countryside. The inn is next to a spring which people believe has healing water. Okko helps her grandmother to do chores, but discovers that she is the only person who can see spirits in the inn. Some spirits are friendly and some give her challenges.

The heartwarming animation Okko's Inn will be released on April 25 in cinemas near you.
