Winner of the Best Actor prize at Cannes for its young star Yûya Yagira, a twelve-year-old boy named Akira must care for his three younger siblings when their irresponsible mother leaves them in their Tokyo apartment with very little money.

At just 14 years old, Yuya Yadira became the youngest person to win Best Actor in Cannes for this heartbreaking masterpiece from Hirokazu Koreeda. Unsentimental, but told with boundless empathy and compassion, Nobody Knows lowers its gaze for an unflinching, child’s-eye view of neglect and survival.
