Like Father, Like Son(bcSunday)
Would you choose your natural son, or the son you believed was yours after spending 6 years together? Kore-eda Hirokazu, the globally acclaimed director of ＂Nobody Knows＂, ＂ Still Walking＂ and ＂ I wish＂, returns to the big screen with another family – a family thrown into torment after a phone call from hospital where the son was born….. Ryota is forced to make a life-changing decision, to choose between ‘nature’ and ‘nurture’. Seeing Midori’s devotion to Keita even after learning his origin, and communicating with the rough yet caring family that has raised his natural son for the last six years, Ryota also starts to question himself: has he really been a ‘father’ all these year…The moving story of a man who finally faces himself when he encounters an expected wall for the first time in his life.
