Ouch. Just finished Nobody Knows.

I thought having watched Kotaro Lives Alone had me prepared for a more serious take on the subject, but that only lasted the first 2/3. Once that foreshadowing scene happened, I got a pit in my stomach that just got bigger until it was finally over.

Afterwards, I read the plot summary on Wikipedia, which I normally do with foreign movies to get clued in in cultural things I wouldn't get otherwise and saw this was based on a specific real life case. Surprisingly, the real story seemed even worse, especially considering the mom got custody back after everything.

Amazingly powerful film. Added the others to my watchlist as well.
