Japan | 2023 | 127’ | 12a | Hirokazu Kore-eda | Sakura Ando, Eita Nagayama,Soya Kurokawa

When her young son Minato starts to behave strangely, his mother feels that there is something wrong. Discovering that a teacher is responsible, she storms into the school demanding to know what's going on. But as the story unfolds through the eyes of mother, teacher and child, the truth gradually emerges. Kore-eda is a master at creating stories about families and this complex drama about misunderstood children in a reactionary adult world with a wonderful score from the late Ryuichi Sakamoto is sensitive and hopeful.

+ Intro from U3A on Monday 18 March, 12.50pm.
