What makes a family? How do family memembers get along with each other? Japanese director Hirokazu Koreeda tries to answer these questions in his films.

His laterst film, Shoplifters, is about his favrite topic –family relations. With this film, Koreeda won this year’s Palme d’Or (金棕榈奖), the Cannes Film Festival’s top honor.

Shoplifters tells the story of a poor family living in Tokyo. Three generations living under the same roof survive by stealing from local shops.

Obviously, what they are doing is wrong. But the director focuses more on the heartwarming details of the family’s daily life, according to The Playist. Koreeda shows how the family memebers love and support each other. For example, the family plans a beach trip for the youngest sister. They carefully pick out swimwear for the girl. At the beach, they play happily. The girl draws a picture to help her remember their time together.This causes viewers to forget about their moral judgments(道德审判).

This is another feature of Koreeda’s filming style. He is good at presenting ordinary life. It’s slow and full of small details – sometimes it’s even boring. But there is tension(冲突) present as well. In Shoplifters, the surprise is that the family memembers don’t actually have blood ties to each other, but they are still closer than a real family. They all have their own stories.

In Japan and most other Asian countries, blood ties are what defines (定义) family. But Koreeda questions that by looking at different kinds of relations.
