Otousan no tabako

A girl's father has a bad cough and is sick in bed because of his serious illness. However, he can't stop smoking. Therefore, he asks his little daughter to buy cigarettes.

This is a Japanese short movie. Each of the cast plays the role very naturally. Especially, I love the little girl's acting. She is very charming. I can sympathize with the scene, where the girl can't turn her father's down even though she knows that her father is telling her a lie. I believe she never wants father's death because of the cigarette. She will just want to believe her father because she loves her father with pure feelings.

This story shows me that everyone has the pure heart. I recommend this film because it is very moving that only the little girl can change her father and the family becomes happy at the end.

'The Errand' is a family story. It was produced in 2007. An elementary school girl buys cigarettes for her father, but her mother is angry with her because smoking has a lot of negative effects. The girl goes to be with her father who is dying of an illness, presumably cancer. The father asks the girl to buy cigarettes for him. The story is about her going to buy cigarettes for her father. I found this short film very thought-provoking. The girl knows the negative effects of giving cigarettes to her father who is weak. However, I believe that the girl's desire to fulfill her beloved father's wish is very complicated. I also liked the child actor who represented this emotion well. I could understand her feelings through her natural acting. This is why I was drawn into this film. Also, the father looked really in pain and it was very vexing to watch. I thought this short film should be seen by anyone who has a family member who smokes and is in trouble. I thought it would inspire them to stop smoking.

By watching this movie, I remember my grandfather. He was a heavy smoker and he always smoked until he got his first grandson. After my brother was born, he stopped smoking. That is why I have never seen his smoking. My father was kind and he loved us very much. We also really love him, I was looking forward to seeing him. When I was 12 years old, he died because of stomach cancer. I have no image that my grandfather smokes but I imagine if I were in this movie's situation. My grandfather was in a hospital, I always thought "What can I do for him?" "What does he hope?" "I want to do everything he wants," because I really loved him. I wanted to make him smile. The girl I this movie also loves her father. She knows that cigarettes are not good for his health but she wants to do everything he wants, as I was so before. I can feel nostalgia, sadness and warmth by this movie.

This is the story about one family. The father is sick. He cannot give up to smoke. He really want to smoke cigarette, but he cannot go out from bet. So, he ask his daughter to buy cigarette. The daughter bought it, but her mother scolds her. He must give up to smoke. The daughter cannot understand why her father must not smoke. She worry about his father because he looks very painful, and she understand the father want to smoke. She wants her father to be fine. a delinquent girl appears to the daughter. She smokes. The daughter says to the girl "Please give me a cigarette."

I like this movie. It is because I can see love in their family, The daughter really worries about her father. I like last scene, but I cannot tell the last scene because if I tell it, it will be board for you.

I think you should watch this movie with your family.

A little girl wants a cigarette for her father. But when she brings a cigarette, she is always scolded by her mother, because he is lung cancer. However he wants a cigarette hardly, so she goes to buy it again as she loves him.

This is a Japanese short movie that is about affection between parents and children. I moved this film. The little girl does not know that the cigarettes connect to his death. She wants her father to be well and wants to do something for him. So she only grants his wish. Her pure heart makes me moved.

What is message of this film? This movie let me think about the effects of cigarette will bring. A schoolgirl's phrase tells everything. I can feel this video reality, thanks to the ordinary actors.
