In 1988, Studio Ghibli released the animated film 'Grave of the Fireflies,' based on the semi-autobiographical novel 'The Grave of the Fireflies' by Akiyuki Nosaka, depicting the struggles of a brother and sister during World War II. The classic film has now been authorized for adaptation into a musical, aiming to remind people of the brutality of war and the value of family ties. The musical will be performed in Taiwan at the end of the month, using Mandarin to ensure audience understanding of the storyline.
