This is a Japanese anime I watched not too long ago. Memories and dreams are central to the story and help to give the movie a very quiet tone. I thought it was interesting that dreams have a very direct impact on reality in this movie. Now that I'm writing about this anime, I wish I remembered it during the conference so that I could recommend it to the "Can You Tell Me if My Dreams Change My Life" guy. If anyone is interested in more details, here's a link to the Amazon site. http://www.amazon.com/Place-Promised-Our-Early-Days/dp/B0009PLMAS
