Early life and education

Kore-eda's father was born in Taiwan.

Kore-eda's father was conscripted into the Japanese military during World War II and detained in Siberia for three years after the end of the war.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

He said through an interpreter, "My mother loved films! She adored Ingrid Bergman, Joan Fontaine, Vivien Leigh! We couldn't afford to go together to the cinema, but she was always watching their movies on TV. She stopped all family business or discussions to watch these movies. We would watch together. So I adored film—like her."<ref name="TheGuardian" />
