The anime's story may seem odd to some but it is in fact an abstract film. Simply meaning it has no dialogue and relys on imagery alone for the plot. It depicts what man will do at any costs for water through slap stick humor mimicking American cartoons style of that time period. Okay so that description alone may seem pretty boring but if you're an art enthusiast you may enjoy seeing a different form of story telling with no dialogue.
So if you'd like to see one of the early forms of what anime originated from I encourage you to watch. But in all fair warning this film is more to be appreciated as history/ an art form rather than just for entertainment sake. Don't get me wrong it is pretty fun to watch but if you rather prefer anime with bishies and shojo .... this probably won't be your thing. But if you're like me and enjoy memorabilia from the 60's and 1950s cartoons this is a great.
