From the prolific writer-director of the Palme d’Or-winning Shoplifters comes this tender family drama in the vein of Yasujirō Ozu or Mikio Naruse. Hirokazu Koreeda wisely assembles a series of vignettes of everyday moments to explore sisterly relationships and the deep bonds between families.

Oda Nobunaga marries Lady No, who wants him dead. But when her father dies, he gives her a reason to live again, and when in a predicament, she listens to his doubts. Together, they win the Okehazama battle and the unification of Japan becomes their dream. However, he’s turned into a “Demon King” and the Honno-ji Incident is imminent. What did they really dream of during their 30 years together?
