Sinopsis: More fantastic - and less drippy - is "Ichiban Kirei na Mizu (The Most Beautiful Water)," the debut feature by music-clip whiz Hiroshi Usui, based on a cult, hit comic of the same title. The story is a variation on the Tom Hanks classic "Big," but instead of a boy finding himself in a man's body, a sick girl falls asleep one day and does not wake up again for 11 years. In the meantime, her baby sister, Natsumi (Rio Kanno), grows up to become a very studious and serious 12-year-old, studying hard at her summer juku (cram school).
