After a classmate returns, disturbingly different, from a disappearance in the forest, it’s the turn of 10-year-old country girl Chun Mei to be lured to the mountainside lair of a malevolent spirit. Human relations with other creatures great and small inform this ghastly yet gorgeous new work from award-winning Taiwanese animator Tsai Shiu-Cheng (TIME OF CHERRY BLOSSOMS), adapting the writing of novelist Gan Yao Ming. – Rupert Bottenberg
