Kubo, msimuliaji hadithi kijana mwenye kipaji cha ajabu, anamwita kwa bahati mbaya roho ya kale. Anaanzisha safari na marafiki wapya ili kufichua siri za familia yake na kuwashinda vikosi vyeusi vyenye nguvu. Safari hii ya kusisimua ya ‘stop-motion’ inachunguza mada za ushujaa na kumbukumbu.

Great, creative story. <em>'Kubo and the Two Strings'</em> is a fun film, I enjoyed it all. I love the animation style that Laika use, they also tend to get the vibe of their stories pretty bang on.
