2022 Oscar Nominee: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best International Feature Film

Inspired by a Haruki Murakami short story, Ryûsuke Hamaguchi spins an engrossing, rapturous epic about love and betrayal, grief and acceptance. With his characteristic emotional transparency, Hamaguchi charts the unexpected, complex relationships that theater actor-director Yûsuke Kafuku forges with a trio of people out of professional, physical, or psychological necessity. Hamaguchi specializes in revelations of the heart, and "Drive My Car"—a beautiful melding of two distinct authorial sensibilities—consistently steers clear of the familiar in its characters’ journeys towards self-examination.

In Japanese with English subtitles.
