Episode 255: Monster
from Ellissinema Podcast Hosted by Ellissinema Podcast
After a mother (Ando Sakura) discovers that teacher's bullying is behind her young son's sudden strange beahvior, she storms into his school demanding an explanation. Continually left without satifactory answers-and with an increasingly distressed child-she furiously escalates her concerns to the school board and the media. But as the story unfolds through the multilayerd perspectives of mother, teacher, and child, the real truth gradually emerges-and proves much more complex than anyone could have expected. Starring Sakura Ando, Eita Nagayama, Soya Kurokawa, Hinata Hiiragi, Mitsuki Takahata, Akihiro Kakuta, Shido Nakamura, and Yuko Tanaka Music by Ryuichi Sakamoto Cinematography by Ryuto Kondo Screenplay by Yuji Sakamoto Edited and Directed by Hirokazu Kore-eda
