Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

You might want to keep your phone out for these.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Who'll love it: Right up the alley of people who love a good family story and families. Anyone with siblings or parents will recognize something here. Fans of Wolf Children or The Secret Life of Bees should feel right at home.
The mood: Feel-good.
The pace: Paced for all ages, at 18 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
What might put you off: No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Skip it if you want something with an edge.

In rural Japan, a mother and daughter attempt to reconnect after dealing with the loss of a loved one the previous year.
