ABOUT HER BROTHER (2010) - Yoji Yamada

Ototo - A restrained melodrama that works without being sappy or overly self-conscious of its aim to tug at our heartstrings. Same title as Kon Ichikawa's 1960 film, but is not a remake.

Ginko seems to be living the good life: She's the respectable owner of a neighborhood drug store in Tokyo, and her daughter Koharu is about to get married to a doctor. However, Koharu's wedding day also brings home Ginko's younger brother Tetsuro, an actor with a stalled career and a penchant for drinking who shows up causing trouble.

Having covered for him all her life, Ginko is ready to disown her burdensome younger brother, but some things are easier said than done...
