Just watched the movie "The Children Of Kobe" on NHK this evening and it was a gem! Short, succinct and a tear-jerker.
The movie revolves around 2 strangers whose lives got entwined for a day when they revisit their hometown of Kobe after more than 10 years.
Having gone through the powerful earthquake that took close to 5,000 lives in Kobe in 1995, both parties share their feelings and internal struggles over 1 night.
The show is captivating and engaging even though most of the time it focused only on the couple. Injected with humor, it touches the heart without being cheesy and is surprisingly good!
A rare find to end our weekend. Love it! =)
