Nobody Knows
Director:Hirokazu Koreeda
Cert:12A Year: 2004 Length:141mins
Country:Japan Language:Japanese
Inspired by an infamous true story that made headlines in Japan, four children are abandoned by their wayward mother. The children survive in a world of imagination and parallel existence that is both terrifying and heart-stoppingly sad. By turns discomforting, comic and moving, this is a haunting and powerful achievement from the director of Afterlife.
