Shoplifters Manbiki kazoku
Hirokazu Koreeda / Japan / 2018 / 121 min / Japanese
On the margins of Tokyo, a dysfunctional band of outsiders are united by fierce loyalty and a penchant for petty theft. When their young son is arrested, secrets are exposed that upend their tenuous, below-the-radar existence and test their quietly radical belief that it is love and not blood that defines a family. Palme d’Or at last year’s Cannes.
