Tokyo Sonata

Drama Falling victim to company outsourcing, Ryuhei Sasaki loses his job but doesn't dare tell his wife Megumi or children, leaving each day at the usual time to seek a new position at the job centre while Megumi keeps the family home spick and span and struggles to connect with sons Takashi and Kenji. Ryuhei's lies begin to spiral out of control when he meets old friend Kurosu, who is also out of work and pretending to his wife that everything is well. The two men rely on one another to maintain the facade, unaware that Megumi at least has seen them queuing for free porridge, handed out by a charity.
