“Grave of the Fireflies” is a 1988 Japanese animated war drama movie directed by Isao Takahata and produced by Studio Ghibli. The story follows two siblings, Seita and Setsuko, as they struggle to survive during the aftermath of the bombing of Kobe, Japan during World War II.

The film is based on a semi-autobiographical novel of the same name by Akiyuki Nosaka and is considered a masterpiece of animation and storytelling. It is known for its powerful and emotional portrayal of the devastating effects of war on civilians, particularly children.

Despite its critical acclaim, “Grave of the Fireflies” was not initially a commercial success in Japan. However, it has since become a beloved and widely recognized film both domestically and internationally, and is often cited as one of the greatest animated films ever made.
