After Life (PG)

Synopsis

KoreEda’s humourous, passionate, thought-provoking and quietly moving masterpiece

At a half-way station between heaven and earth, guides greet the newly dead. Over the next three days, they will help the dead sift through their memories to find the one defining moment of their lives. The chosen moment will be recreated on film and re-lived for eternity. With exquisite beauty, After Life shows us that while the memories people choose may seem

simple, be it a first kiss or a last cigarette, their meaning is often more complex and deciding upon them is no easy task. Using humour and compassion the guides lead, urge and persuade their clients to discover meaning and value in their past, for without a decision the dead will be stuck in limbo, forever recreating and filming the happiness of others.
