It has some interesting visuals, but A Silent Voice demands investment in the redemption of someone who’s impossible to root for.

Yamada’s creative direction shows a filmmaker with a distinctive way of looking at the world, following in the footsteps of other maverick Japanese talents like Ozu, Kitano and Miyazaki. Yep, she’s that good.
