Fight for Survival (12,115 – 17 Dec 2007

Fight for Survival (12,115 – 17 Dec 2007 / 08 Dec 2025) In Tokyo, the reckless single mother Keiko moves to a small apartment with her twelve years old son Akira Fukushima and his siblings Kyoko, Shigeru and Yuki. The children have different fathers and do not have schooling, but they have a happy life with their mother. When Keiko finds a new boyfriend, she leaves the children alone, giving some money to Akira and assigning him to take care of his siblings. When the money finishes, Akira manages to find means to survive with the kids. "Dare mo Shiranai", a.k.a "Nobody Knows", is a sensitive movie based on a true story. The performances of the children are amazing, highlighting Yûya Yagira, and the drama is developed in a slow but suitable pace. The direction is effective and the music score is adequate. The open conclusion is disappointing, since it does not bring any message. It seems that life goes on only. My vote is eight. Title (Brazil): "Ninguém Pode Saber" ("Nobody Can Know")

Extremely sad to watch this little family have

Extremely sad to watch this little family have to deal with life on their own. The child actors were all quite talented. Hard to believe it is based on a true story.
