From 10.05 to 15.05 at Cinemaholics Tbilisi – “Monster” (dir. Kore-eda Hirokazu, 2023)

Who's the monster? Am I the monster? When these questions plague young minds, they usually seed doubt and sink hearts. Maybe, they can also grow courage and lift spirits.

A film by renowned Japanese filmmaker Kore-eda Hirokazu (Broker, Shoplifters). A distraught mother accuses a teacher of corrupting her son. But as the story unfolds through the eyes of mother, teacher, and child, an even stranger truth gradually emerges.

Awarded Best Screenplay and the Queer Palm at Cannes, the film's tender answer to the question 'Who's the monster?' will melt your heart.
