Pebbles of DreamsAkiyama Kiiro
This is “Yume no Kozui,” an insert song from the film Poupelle of Chimney Town, the screen adaptation of the picture book Poupelle of Chimney Town published in 2016 by Akihiro Nishino of the comedy duo King Kong.
The story follows a protagonist who is called a liar and left all alone by those around him, and who meets a friend similarly disliked by others, and together they set off on a journey.
The lyrics convey the strength of deciding to move forward without giving up on one’s dreams—like the protagonist—embodying the idea that “nothing starts unless you believe in yourself.” The world is stressful for children, too, but I hope they will believe in themselves and push toward the future they imagine.
