儿童食堂

以当今物质丰富的日本社会中，被人遗忘于一角的，每天无法吃饱饭的儿童们为视角拍摄的电影。小学5年级的勇人，父母经营着一家食堂，他和妹妹每天过着衣食无忧的安稳生活。另一方面，勇人的好朋友贵志家则是完全不管孩子的单亲妈妈家庭。因此勇人的父母经常把贵志带来家里吃晚饭。某天，勇人遇到了和父亲一起住在车里的两姐妹，他便拜托父母为她们做饭。几天后，两姐妹的父亲失踪了。于是勇人和贵志带着两姐妹开始了令人意外的行动......Shockingly many children in Japan come from homes that are below the relative poverty threshold as Japan has one of the highest rates of child poverty in the developed world. According to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, one out of six children lives in poverty. Reflecting this reality some citizens are taking action; one successful solution are 'kids' diners' or cafeterias for the underprivileged. Typically at these 'diners' volunteer staff cook donated foods. Hot meals are provided free or very cheap to children from homes unable to provide healthy meals. Volunteering at these local 'diners' is an example of a fast-growing activism. The film depicts modern Japan seen through the eyes of children whose lives revolve around 'The Kids' Diner.' The film explores themes of community solidarity as no one can live alone.
