Momo is a young girl who grew up in a big city. However, following the premature loss of her father, she has to move with her mother to the old family house on a remote island. Here, time seems to have stopped: old wooden buildings, holy shrines surrounded by trees, fields painstakingly carved out from steep hills... and no shopping mall.
Needless to say, Momo is not too overenthusiastic about this new environment. Most of all, her heart is still feeling uneasy about an unfinished letter left by her father. A letter that contained only two words: "Dear Momo..."
What was dad going to say?
One day, exploring the attic of her new big house, Momo finds a dusty and worn out book. And from that moment, something really unexpected starts happening around her...

Where it came from
A Letter to Momo was conceived and directed by Hiroyuki Okiura, who spent seven years developing the project following his acclaimed work on the film Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade. Production I.G sought to create a deeply personal, hand-drawn character study that balanced supernatural folklore with the grounded, emotional reality of a young girl dealing with grief after the loss of her father.
The film's visual design is noted for its meticulous attention to the rural landscape of Seto Inland Sea, aiming for a naturalistic aesthetic that contrasts with the whimsical, often grotesque depictions of the three goblins Momo encounters. Upon its 2011 release, it was lauded by critics for its patient pacing and emotional resonance, earning numerous nominations and awards on the international festival circuit, including the Grand Prize at the New York International Children's Film Festival.
