This is a film that is not so Cinematographic, also was recorded in digital but the point is the story in itself; centered in what other movies discard. I mean; how many people are involved in a certain action; how many are touched by a given action?
Is like a Chess game.
It have an Strong starting to let you shocked in no time.
You can see the embarrassment in the Japanese society; with their norms in which if you somehow are out, you will feel ashamed.
Showed also the lack of communication that leads to certain problems, like the Father who realized later about his influence over his daughter however; media editing process sometimes transform reality and can put wrong ideas in the Minds of the.implicated.
.The last shot is so touchy.

Altered Life
A very moving drama
This is a powerful drama centred around the tragic accidental death of a schoolgirl. It depicts the characters around her coming to terms with their own unique responsibilities which led to the tragedy.
This is by no means dull or boring. I found it very moving, well scripted, filmed and acted out. 10/10.
An awful event captured beautifully
The characters are trapped in their own way of living their lives. Some of them proud, arrogant, shy and sad. The conflict between them is heartbreaking.
The ending is something incredible.
