Description
The movie is set in a hospital where "strange" people are sent. One of the older, gruffer patients, Onuki, is quite annoyed with the arrival of Paco. She is in the hospital due to a memory disorder - she can only remember the events of one day at a time. Each day she reads a pop-up children's book, and often asks Onuki to read to her. Each day it is a new story for her. Eventually, the two of them develop a friendship, and Onuki decides to enlist the help of the other people in the hospital to perform a play of the book, hoping it will help Paco.

Paco and the Magical Picture Book is a film that's meant to be enjoyed not only by kids, but also adults, however, both will appreciate it for different reasons. Kids will be attracted to the movie for its bright colors, amazing CGI and playful music. Adults on the other hand will find that they can identify with at least one of the characters in their own personal way. If you're a fan of "Memories of Matsuko" or "Kamikaze Girls", then you will most likely enjoy Paco and the Magical Picture Book. This director has a very distinct style of storytelling and his movies are always very entertaining, yet more reflective than most mainstream films. Tetsuya Nakashima, the director, somehow always manages to create characters that you sympathize with and care about which is a rare thing to do. Overall, this film was very magical and extremely touching
