Jarinko Chie is a 1981 film directed by Takahata, adapting Etsumi Haruki's widely loved manga. It follows ten-year-old Chie, often called "the most unfortunate girl in Japan," as she runs her family's diner while dealing with her unemployed yakuza father and her parents' separation. Despite the heavy-sounding premise, the movie is a lighthearted comedy. Set in Osaka, which has a distinct culture compared to Tokyo, the film was successful enough to spawn a TV series, with Takahata serving as chief director.
