Ryuhei, patriarch of an average Japanese middle-class family, suddenly gets fired from his job. In fear of losing his authority, he doesn’t tell anybody and still pretends to go to work. He wanders around the streets of Tokyo, not realizing the difficulties his family is going through in the meanwhile. Brilliant acting and stunning visuals make TOKYO SONATA an outstanding family drama.
