Short description
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.
What's left behind the scenes
- The film is dedicated to the memory of composer Ryuichi Sakamoto.
- According to director Hirokazu Kore-eda, he was inspired to make a film about homophobia after watching Gregg Araki's drama "Mysterious Skin" (2004), which he considers one of the greatest films in history.
