Tokyo Sonata (Japan)

Horror film master Kiyoshi Kurosawa set aside all the things that go bump in the night to look at the most frightening thing of all: Losing a career at the age of 46 and losing face in front of your family. Set in the economic collapse of the 1990's (but eerily reminiscent of the collapse of the US economy), Tokyo Sonata takes a brutal look at the fear of starting over and the hope of a better life for our children.
