He also has a dog (thus Dog of Flanders, the place where this story is taking place) and a two other friends who are most likely in similar situation as him (orphans iirc). So The story starts off and we learn that he really likes painting, but he can't get any material to do this and his dog had cruel previous master... and then the grandpa dies.
The animators conducted extensive research on 19th century Flanders. Although it has to be said that a lot of features in the series are not Flemish but typically Dutch (the girl's hat and the tulips for example). The buildings depicted in the series were modeled after the Bokrijk open-air museum..
In 19th century Belgium, in the Flanders countryside, lived a young boy with an artistic flair named Nello, and his faithful companion Patrash. Though poor in the physical sense, the two friends shared a rich life along with Alois, one of Nello's neighbors, and his grandfather, his last living relative.
This movie is very depressing, I would say on the same level as Grave of the fireflies, if not more so. So if you don't want to be depressed and potentially cry buckets I highly suggest avoiding this. So does this movie have any worth aside from being an emotional tear jerker? Honestly, not much...
Full Length Movies. (45 minutes+) Movie series included but only the first one. Movies that are attached to anime series aren't included but if they came first they are. Made a note of ones that I think are stand out movies that all anime fans should watch on some need to finish that part still
