I’m a big fan of anime movies, so I was happy to see this released, It’s about patriotic children in China growing up in a time of chaos. The original language is Cantonese but English subs have been provided (attached below). The source is a R3 retail DVD.

Quality: Great quality, with 6 channel AC-3, animation is similar to Ninku.

Synopsis: Adapted from renowned writer Li Xintian’s same-titled novel, animated film Sparkling Red Star is a heartwarming, colorful, and patriotic children’s story set in 1930s China. Naked Ambition and Love on the Rocks director Lam Chiu Yin makes a rather significant departure from his previous works to present the big adventures of a little comrade. Growing up in a time of chaos, carefree village boy Dongzi greatly admires his brave Red Army soldier father and the Red Guards who have protected his village from the evil landlord. When Dongzi’s father leaves for the Long March, he gives a sparkling red star to his son. This red star becomes Dongzi’s protector in the subsequent years as he encounters numerous hardships and slowly comes of age during the changing tides of wartime China.
