The auteur's socially conscious humanist drama revolves around a family of petty thieves formed by Like Father, Like Son's Lily Franky, indie darling Ando Sakura (100 Yen Love), Matsuoka Mayu (Tremble All You Want), child actor Kairi Jo and legendary late actress Kiki Kirin. The arrival of a new member causes their fragile bonds to gradually unravel in this poignant examination of what makes up a family. Shoplifters swept the top prizes at the 42nd Japan Academy Prize including Best Film, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Cinematography, Best Lighting and Best Music. Shifty father Osamu (Lily Franky) works in construction and regularly goes shoplifting with young Shota (Kairi Jo). His wife Nobuyo (Ando Sakura) swipes things at the laundromat, grandma Hatsue (Kiki Kirin) plays too much pachinko, and Aki (Matsuoka Mayu) moonlights at a peep show. One cold night, Osamu and Shota find a little girl (Sasaki Miyu) locked out of her home and freezing in the streets. They bring her back to their bustling nest where they discover marks of abuse on her body. The girl seems in no rush to go home, and her parents don't try to find her. Despite the family's already tough circumstances, they decide to keep her and give her a new name. However, one day, the parents finally report her disappearance to the police, putting the family and their many secrets at risk of exposure.
