The Grandma & The Spirit: A Heartwarming 4-Minute Ghibli Story 🧶🌥️| Naptime Stories

This 2D animated short film explores the beauty of solitude, nature, and unexpected friendship. Inspired by the visual storytelling of Studio Ghibli and the "Iyashikei" (healing) genre, this film relies entirely on visual acting and immersive ASMR sound design—no dialogue, no background music. Just the sounds of wind, rain, and a crackling fire.
Watch as Lin nurses a tiny "Mosskin" back to health, shares her meals, and eventually faces the hardest part of loving nature: letting it remain wild.
Meet the Characters:
Grandma Lin 👵: A gentle soul living in the Sea of Clouds.
The Mosskin 🍃: A grapefruit-sized forest spirit made of moss, fur, and magic.

Sound Design Note: 🎧
This video features high-quality Foley (sound effects). Please wear headphones to hear the texture of the flour, the rain on the glass, and the crackle of the fireplace.
