This was a MONSTER film!

This movie is about the different perspectives from the main characters about a recent fire in their area. Throughout watching the movie we get to gradually understand the true events of what happened and the reasons for their actions. I personally loved this movie, the style of filmography combined with the portrayal of different perspectives of the incident in the movie were my favourite. The connection between the two boys Hoshi and Minato was inspiring to me as they fought through many conflicts and still were able to find each other in the end. I enjoyed joining them on their process of thoughts and emotions which is mainly why I enjoyed this. At points, I found this movie hard to follow but overall I could understand the main points. I'd recommend this to people who like Japanese TV and who like the different perspective style of storytelling.
