Kabei: Our Mother (2008)

Set in Tokyo in 1940, the peaceful life of the Nogami Family suddenly changes when the father, Shigeru, is arrested and accused of being a Communist. His wife Kayo works frantically from morning to night to maintain the household and bring up her two daughters with the support of Shigeru's sister Hisako and Shigeru's ex-student Yamazaki, but her husband does not return. WWII breaks out and casts dark shadows on the entire country, but Kayo still tries to keep her cheerful determination, and sustain the family with her love. This is an emotional drama of a mother and an eternal message for peace.

Like all of Yamada's films I've seen, the relationships he captures on film always draw me close and keep me interested and, eventually, become emotionally invested. His works touch me with how he portrays and develops relationships. An entire movie can take place in one room, and you're so enthralled with the people, that you hardly even noticed, nor care for a change in physical scenery, when the emotional scenery you see from the journey he portrays is so enduring.

A movie that I am just at a loss of words to describe. Needless to say, by the end of the movie most viewers will be left in tears in seeing the situation this family has gone through in World War II Japan has the father of the family is arrested for 'thought crimes', leaving the mother (the 'Kabei' of the title) struggling to keep the family going. Directed by Yoji Yamada (of Twilight Samurai fame).

This is not a story about lamenting the inevitability of time but rather of living in denial.

So heartbreaking, but I love it! This is the best performance from Asano Tadanobu (tied with "Last Lives") to date by the way.
