Known for his strange,wild,and violent films like Love Exposure and Suicide Club, Sono Sion proved that he can create a simple yet beautiful family film in Be Sure To Share (Chanto Tsutaeru). This film is dedicated to his late father and to date, the most personal of his works.

Basically a story of a son trying to connect to his dying father before it's too late. Though the theme differs from most of Sono Sion's works, I felt some similarities to Love Exposure but only in its way of storytelling.
I like how the flashbacks is used to tell the very details and how it affected the characters in the present day. The casting is superb, everyone did a great job. Notably, I love Akira and Ito Ayumi's performances as lovers. Also, Okuda Eiji as the strict father/coach now fighting with cancer.

Simple, heartwarming, and haunting. A fan of Sono Sion or not, I highly recommend this film.
