Kore-eda’s films are defined by their rich curiosity about humanity, focusing on grief, trauma, and the idea that family isn’t always biological.
CIFF is showcasing six films by Kore-eda, enriching the cinematic experience with emotional themes and a unique perspective on human connections.
In 'After Life', Kore-eda presents a supernatural premise grounded in reality, avoiding sentimentality and emphasizing the importance of memories.
Kore-eda fulfills Roger’s belief of film as an empathy machine, creating deeper connections with audiences through his honest portrayal of human experiences.
