If you loved Thumbelina, try Twelve Months
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Yugo Serikawa, and they sit in Animation / Family / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Thumbelina, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Twelve Months is
A royal bouquet request becomes a stepdaughter’s impossible errand, turned surreal by calendar spirits. She trades frostbite for winter defiance when spring blooms on command. The reward promptly causes more trouble than it’s worth.
