About Her Brother (おとうと) Japanese Movie Review :
The movie opens with news clips and other snippets of video tracing the years from Ginko's life. The "Otoko wa tsuraiyo" series was a fantasy, but "Ototo" is set in Japan today. Naturally, society turns a cold shoulder to the selfish ne'er-do-well Tetsuro.
Still, Yamada does not abandon him. The director stands ready with happy final moments of life for Tetsuro, in which he is embraced by both the institution's generosity and the love of his family. It portrays society as it should be, and it's powerful enough to make audiences wince.
Alongside the tale of a loving relationship between a sister and her brother, the film follows the relationship between divorced Koharu and carpenter Toru (played by Ryo Kase), a romance so pure to bring smiles to audiences and so typically Yamada. (By Tomomi Katsuta, Cultural News Department)
Commentary by film writer Mika Hosoya:
The film has a resilience not seen in other films that simply manipulate audiences' emotions so that they feel "touched." The plot progresses according to expectations for the most part, but is still able to evoke rich feelings. Incorporating Koharu's cool world view was also effective.
Commentary by film writer Yuji Takahashi:
Distinctive expressions in dialogue and unique portrayals of relationships brings this film closer to the world of fantasy and formal beauty rather than contemporary drama. Indulging in a world where realities specific to Yamada's films reside, I laughed and cried to my heart's content.
