Cannes Jury Prize-winning drama from Japanese filmmaker Hirokazu Kore-eda (I Wish, Still Walking) about a hard-working father devoted to living the perfect family life. But that ideal is shaken when he and his wife are told that their 6-year-old boy Keita is not their son – they were given the wrong baby after the birth.
"Ryota [the father] is forced to make a life-changing decision, to choose between nature and nurture. Meanwhile, seeing Midori’s devotion to Keita even after learning his origin, and communicating with the rough yet caring family who raised his blood son for the last six years, Ryota also starts to question himself: has he really been a father all these years."
