🔸 I have always loved Hirokazu Kore-eda’s films because of how gently he looks at family and everyday life. Our Little Sister is one of his most beautiful works. The story follows three sisters who meet their young half-sister at their father’s funeral and decide to invite her to live with them. The plot is very simple. It moves through daily routines, shared meals, and quiet conversations. Nothing dramatic happens, but emotions grow slowly and naturally.
🔸 The performances are wonderful and feel completely real. The four sisters have a natural chemistry that makes their bond believable. They laugh, argue softly, and support each other in small ways. No one overacts. Feelings are shown through small gestures and silence. This is what makes Kore-eda’s films so special. He understands how families heal slowly and how love can exist even when the past is painful.
🔸 The ending is calm and deeply touching. It does not try to surprise the audience. Instead, it leaves you with a feeling of peace and hope. The soundtrack is soft and gentle, blending beautifully with nature and everyday sounds. It supports the emotion without taking attention away from the characters. Our Little Sister is a warm and sincere film that shows why Kore-eda is one of the most human filmmakers working today.
Verdict : Very Good
DC Rating : 4.25/5
