Every morning, the teenage Umi raises flags as a blessing to passing sailors, and her goodwill catches the attention of schoolmate Shun, who writes the anonymous flag-raiser a poem in the school newspaper. Joining Shuns campaign to save the school clubhouse from being destroyed as Tokyo prepares for the 1964 Olympics, Umi soon falls for the charming and passionate young activist. True to form this gorgeous animation, with a surprisingly eclectic score (surf music in a Ghibli film!), evokes such gentle humanistic themes. It is a wonderful film that everyone will engage with and should not be missed!
