    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.

    Winner of the Best Screenplay Award at the 2023 Cannes Festival, the new film by Japanese master Hirokazu Kore-eda is gently devastating in its compassion, a masterpiece of shifting perspectives that surprises to the end.  

    Filmography: The Truth (2019), Shoplifters (2018), After the Storm (2016), Our Little Sister (2015), Nobody Knows (2004), After Life (1998).
