Giving birth doesn't make you into a mother, a theme very well explored
Beautifully written story that reveals itself in such a masterful way. Amazing, must watch
Beautiful cinematography and emotional story. Hirokazu Koreeda knows how to make a truly captivating film that leaves me feeling bittersweet
It's a really great and emotionally touching japanese film. I got really invested, and felt like the caracters were real.
Equal parts beautiful & haunting. A wonderfully crafted film exploring the meaning of family amidst a backdrop of desperation & survival.
How easy it is to judge someone when you haven't walked in their shoes! Amazing movie and a real eye opener on what family really means.
Heartwarming and heartbreaking. This movie will keep shocking you the longer you watch.
The discussions of poverty in Japan are great, the emotional found family angle was just too heavy handed for me.
It’s a long sit but worth the wait as the story gets darker
A simple film that makes you examine what a family truly is.
