parental respect

His films like 'Tokyo Story' and 'Like Father, Like Son' profoundly explore the complexities of filial duty, generational bonds, and what it truly means to honor and understand one's parents.

His film 'Eat Drink Man Woman' delicately navigates the tension between respecting traditional parental authority and the evolving needs of both generations in modern families.
