Overview
Shuhei is leading a tough life. His alcoholic mother Akiko can only hook up with bad guys and order Shuhei to go get money from his disapproving grandparents instead of going to school. Except raising the little half-sister, his rock-bottom life seems to have no end.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A grim, intimate portrait of a boy trapped in cycles of parental neglect and emotional enmeshment, with no clear escape. This is a film that watches like a slow suffocation, grounded in the small, daily humiliations of absolute powerlessness.
