Plot: After his family gets evicted from their apartment, a junior high school boy decides to part company with his father and two older siblings to fend for himself in this movie based on Hiroshi Tamura's best-selling memoir.

It's hard to watch a film like this, that focuses entirely on severely depressed and/or dysfunctional people. But if you can bear the content, the filmmaking is excellent.
