Japanese animation film 'A Whisker Away' debuts June 18

Miyo Sasaki, nicknamed "Muge," meaning "infinitely mysterious," has a bright personality and is full of energy at school and at home. She is also secretly in love with her classmate Kento Hinode. Miyo tries repeatedly to get Kento's attention, but he takes no notice of her.

She realizes that the only way to get close to him is to transform into a cat, but at some point, the boundary between herself and the cat becomes ambiguous, and she is forced to give up her life as a human.

Directed by Junichi Satoh (“Sailor Moon”) and Tomotaka Shibayama, plus written by Mari Okada ("Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day", “The Anthem of the Heart”), "A Whisker Away" will premiere June 18 on Netflix.
