Logline
A breathtakingly weird animated film based on six short stories by Haruki Murakami, in which the main character is a frog.
A talkative giant frog, a lost cat, and a tsunami help an unambitious commercial attaché, his frustrated wife, and a schizophrenic accountant save Tokyo from an earthquake and give new meaning to their lives.
