Ginger Fairy
5.8
11-year-old Minko is forced to move from a decaying village to the city with his father, mother and sick grandfather. New apartment, school and classmates greet the boy with hostility. This only strengthens his desire to return home, where there is a forest and his friends. But what Minko misses the most is Ginger Fairy, a tame moose he once saved and which disappeared the day he left.
