Nobody Knows
such a heartbreaking but beautiful story. i think it shows really well that no matter the situation kids will always be kids. even if life pushes them to act mature, they will always see the world through the eyes of a child. it is heartbreaking how they didnt even fully understand the cruelty of their sircumstances, and yet they did their best to adapt, to deal with them in their own, brave way. and they never lost hope, they still had dreams and could find happiness in the smallest moments. this movie captures the nature of being a human. it shows in a really raw, yet pure way, what it means to really love the people around you. relationships between them are moving. even if they didnt get on great at times, they never stopped caring about each other. their love towards each other didnt have to be expressed with words, because it was captured in every small gesture, which i find trully beautiful. another wonderful movie by Koreeda; extremely sensitive and touching.
