9/10
short film
17 July 2022
'Otousan no tabako' is a short film. The protagonist is a young girl. Her father is recovering at home from an illness. He is bedridden. He also uses an oxygen mask. Despite his poor health, her father wants to smoke. He gives his daughter money and asks her to buy cigarettes for him. Her mother finds out and gets very angry. Undeterred, he asks his daughter again to buy him a cigarette. She is so distressed, and finally, the daughter gives the father a cigarette. However, he immediately throws it in the trash. She then stands by her father's side and reads aloud. This film makes me think a lot. It also raises a lot of questions. For example, why does the girl start reading and writing a picture book about a big turnip? It is worth a great deal to see. I hope many people will see it.
