Best known for her performances in the films of Hirokazu Kore-eda. She always terrific in all the Kore-eda films she appeared in and gives a lovely performance in his latest film, Shoplifters. She also played a character who is the central focus of the 'little seen/should be more widely known' Sweet Bean (2015) directed by Naomi Kawase:
