Tropic of the Sea

In a rural Japanese fishing village called Amide, the locals have long been blessed by the legend of a mermaid. Now the masses have gotten word of this myth and they are moving in on this community hoping to cash in on this alleged mythological wonder. Tropic of the Sea is a modern day fantasy from a hugely respected and admired animation director. Kon has been credited as the man responsible for bringing Japanese pop-culture to America.
