About I Wish

Forced to live apart due to their parents' separation, two young brothers hatch a complicated plan to reunite their family.

Directed by: Hirokazu Kore-eda
Cast: Kohki Maeda, Ohshiro Maeda, Nene Otsuka, Joe Odagiri
Language: Japanese with English subtitles
Running time: 127 minutes

"Forget about all those phoney Oscar-bait films — this complex, delicate drama about two young boys living through their parents' split is the real deal, and deeply satisfying." — The Guardian

"Kore-eda’s mastery gets us caught up in the moment: We hope for a miracle, and we get one — but of the cinematic kind, in which we’re carried away as if on that train; transformed, just for a moment, into a child again." — The Seattle Times


Education and outreach programs at Asia Society Texas Center are made possible through generous funding from the George and Mary Josephine Hamman Foundation. Additional support provided by the Friends of Education & Outreach at Asia Society Texas Center. This program is presented in partnership with the Consulate General of Japan in Houston.
