Where did you watch this movie?

A Japanese couple stuck with part-time jobs and with fewer incomes avail themselves of the fruits of shoplifting to make ends meet. They are not alone in this behaviour. The younger and the older of the household are in on the act. The unusual routine is about to change from care-free and matter-of-fact to something more dramatic, however, as the couple opens their doors to a beleaguered teenager. The reasons for the family and friends' habit and their motivations slowly unfolds.
