Kids Film: Poupelle Of Chimney Town
Nippon Kids ¹
Young chimney sweep Lubicchi has never seen the stars of which his father told him so much, as he lives in a city where the sky is darkened constantly by the smog from hundreds of chimneys. One day, he meets Poupelle, a peculiar creature made of trash, and the two set out to find out the secret of the stars. An anime fairytale for the whole family!
