Snippet:
In the opening scene of Hirokazu Kore-eda’s new film “Sheep in the Box,” a drone delivers a brochure to a grieving couple advertising a humanoid modeled after their dead son. The service is offered by a company that promises bereaved families the chance to reconnect with lost loved ones. What happens next forms the emotional core of Kore-eda’s most fable-like and philosophically searching film to date.
