Children of Invention - Old Trailer w/Captions

Go to http://childrenofinvention.com for theatrical showtimes or to order DVD!

One of Filmmaker Magazines "25 New Faces of Independent Film," writer-director Tze Chun makes "a fine feature debut" (Manohla Dargis, New York Times) with one of the most-awarded and best-reviewed films of the year. CHILDREN OF INVENTION is by turns humorous and heartbreaking, an "urgent, artful...austerely poetic" (Variety) "edge-of-your-seat family drama" (Spout) thats both powerfully moving and rigorously intelligent."(Boston Phoenix).

After being evicted, hardworking single mom Elaine Cheng (Cindy Cheung, Lady in the Water) tries to maintain a normal life for her children, Raymond and Tina. Elaine juggles a number of jobs, including working for a questionable pyramid scheme. When Elaine doesnt return home one night, nobody knows the kids are home alone, and they are left to fend for themselves. As the days pass, Raymond, a budding inventor, realizes he needs to come up with a plan to take care of his little sister.

Referencing both the mortgage meltdown and suburban Ponzi schemes, the film finds delicate moments of beauty and grace as its child heroes are forced to make their way (Filmmaker Magazine). Featuring gifted child actors--off-the-charts cute, refreshingly free of Hollywood precociousness (LA Weekly), CHILDREN OF INVENTION is "as close to cinematic purity as one is likely to see this year" (Film Society of Lincoln Center), "a rueful homage to American dreams both wonderful and warped" (Village Voice).

CHILDREN OF INVENTION made its world premiere at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, played over 45 film festivals, and won 16 festival awards incuding 7 Grand Jury or Best Narrative Feature prizes.

@djaziatic

It is a Japanese film called Nobody Knows.

The film is toned down of the real incident called "the four abandoned children of Sugamo".
