Your Name (Kimi No Na Wa) is a perfect masterpiece both in terms of content and form that makes viewers' hearts flutter. The dream-like images, each raindrop, wind, petal or star are meticulously painted to help each scene more full of emotions.
The film is the story of the body swap of two estranged schoolgirls Mitsuha and Taki in two different geographical regions. Mitsuha, a girl living in rural Japan, and Taki, a boy from Tokyo, are bored with their current life and want to change this boring life. All dreams come true when the comet appears and 2 strangers swap souls through space, time and enjoy each other's lives. The mixed realities in life, the feeling of anxiousness, always remembering a person, always waiting for someone we don't know who always haunts them.
