Director Kore-eda Hirokazu
Cast Ayu Kitaura, Hiei Kimura, Yûya Yagira

In a small Tokyo apartment, four siblings are abandoned by their mother and left to fend for themselves. With no adult supervision and hidden from the outside world, twelve-year-old Akira takes on the burden of caring for his younger brothers and sisters. As childhood innocence slowly gives way to the harsh realities of poverty and isolation, the children form their own fragile society. This heartbreaking and understated drama captures the resilience of children forced to grow up too soon while living in the shadows of a world that refuses to notice them.
