About Emiri
Emily, who had been abandoned to her parents as a child, grew up in an orphanage. She can not avoid adoptive parents and can not avoid living in nursing homes. Then one day Mamiya visited the facility. Even though they all had no problems, they were still unable to have children in eight years of marriage. Makino, the coordinator, introduces Emily to the couple.
Directed by Heitaro Han, Emiri leans on a strong ensemble — Tsubomi, Mayuko Sasaki, 井上真一 — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2012.
