The Case of Hana & Alice is a relaxed and enjoyable movie about the lives of some young people. The soundtrack is very good, the animation is also quite respectable, although I was not fond of the animation of the characters and some of their movements very much. The narrative has quite a nice pace, so I had a very good time watching this movie, and I did not find it boring. Anyway, it is a really interesting depiction of the naivety of youth. I sometimes wondered if fourteen-year-old girls and boys could be this stupid until I remembered my silly adventures at that age and then I thought “OK, fine”. All in all, this is a pretty good movie. I liked all the mysteries like "a guy called Yuda (“Judas”), who somehow had four wives and who then mysteriously disappeared and was probably murdered" which were explained in such a nice, understated way. 7.7/10.
