No director working today observes family life with such delicacy and care, or is so unstintingly generous with what they find.

Som tilskuer inviteres man (...) til at tage plads i handlingens midte, til at blive en del af intimsfæren. Her bliver skuffelser og svigt præsenteret gennem skuespillernes stille mimik og indforståede bemærkninger.

Detektivbyrån där Ryota arbetar är så lågmält rolig och skruvad att den gärna får dyka upp som tv-serie.

Efter stormen er en dokumentarisk kortlægning, hvor ingen almindelighed er overflødig. Redelig, der let rimer på kedelig. Skærper man sanserne, er vi langt fra kedsomheden.
