Ep. 6: Shoplifters

from Eiga Night Hosted by Chris & Aruba

For our triumphant return from our LONG unplanned break, Aruba and Chris question what it means to be a family with Koreeda Hirokazu's Palme D'or winning masterpiece Shoplifters (2018). We chat about Koreeda's career as the critical darling of the contemporary period, analyze the complex, nuanced morality at work within this makeshift familial unit, and absolutely gush over how great the cast is, especially the wonderful Sakura Ando. And maybe even throw some unnecessary shade at Alfonso Cuaron's Roma (2018)? Find out on our latest episode! This episode is dedicated to the memory of actress Kirin Kiki (Hatsue Shibata).
