-
-
"A sad and stirring drama from the other side of the Pacific."
-
"Enriched by Mutsuo Naganuma's velvety photography, the director's restrained emotional grammar is surprisingly affecting."
-
"Old workhorse Yamada delivers the solar plexus emotional hit of a tragic telegram with precision that shows a lifetime's practice"
-
"The film's comparisons of one woman's suffering to one nation's social descent aren't well drawn enough to escape its own melodramatic pitfalls."
-
"Hits all the right spots to make you cry like chopping onions."
