Klara and the Sun
68Worth an evening.
Bought affection still leaves the household to pay love’s real cost.
The review
Klara and the Sun is Ishiguro’s story of an artificial friend bought for a frail girl in a future that sorts children by genetic lift. The film plays it straight: a made girl whose craft is pure attention, and a household that already outsourced part of its care.
Steady attention and that sun-reverence holding like conscience without creed are the real goods here. It still costs the family the actual work of love; you either keep the hard hours of presence yourselves or train a child to expect the shortcut.
