...precise story about Cancer; a illness that is beyond us and always win; sadly. The director takes this arduous subject in a very simple not oppressive way; painting us the picture with nice camera moves and colors. There is no any low blow or cliché to affect or effect what is going on in these 2 hours long. I think that this is very difficult to achieve in cases like this one that can turn a movie in a melodrama instantly. Life(and death)is simple and direct so this movie. Every one of the characters take the situations as they appear without too much analysis; only letting go and trying to flow with what roll you have in this world.
Plenty of good and well known(in Japan)actors. Lily Franky always good and with a longer acting here; providing with a quote of humor for a sadly (included his)tale. Texture(is digital but top quality)colors palette; sound and of course photography are excellent for a "normal" budget movie. -In my opinion, the main character is not well done casting; I mean, he looks more for a character of a rock band (I think that he actually belongs to one)or a junkie than for this roll.
