    If your local art theater plays it, go watch it. Find it in DVD store if you can. Rent it through your local mega movie renting store if you have to. Everyone has to watch this movie.

    As a highly urbanized country, Japan is subjected to constant social problem, more so than other developed country. Hence, often you will have your Japanese movies that reminds us these problems, Tokyo Godfather, Fireworks, etc.

    Nobody Knows is one of them from another angle.

    Its director likes to use close up on little details like finger nails, shoes, t-shirt colar to indicate tell the audience what kind of situation it is for the victims in the movie. Often we neglect these little details; often we neglect the unfortunate people around us.

    Once in a while we have a world disaster, we all jumped in, we all gave our helping hands, we all praised greatly how much help we gave on tv. Comparing and contrast the figures of aids given with other countries, even. Little things, little unfortunate things happened around us, everyday, everywhere, they are all nicely tucked under our lavish mat and those story never told, those needed aid never arrived. Because they have no news value or because helping a few people doesn't gain enough prestige?

    Nobody knows, as the title suggest. We are never awared of these problems, by our own choice or not. The movie has an unsual slow pace. There is no climax, everything just get worse. Just the those misfortune people nobody knows, their life are not full of excitment, everyday is another to get by, nothing to wish for, nothing to hope for. Nobody Knows depicts the days of these unsounded misfortune. You could have seen the unfortunate events to come. You would have wished they would not come. One by one they came.

    The brilliant part, Nobody Knows lets its audiences decide the ending.


    Seriously, you people have to watch this movie. And if don't feel the sadness, tell me and i will pay the movie ticket for you.
