“Amélie” is a young girl living with her Belgian diplomat father, her mother and her two siblings on post in Tokyo. From birth, she has been a little bit different, and so her parents have recruited the kindly “Nishio-san” to come and take care of her. Her almost instant affect on the child is mesmerising and soon the two are bonding and “Amélie” is speaking - though not immediately to her pesky elder brother…
