Reception
Todd Brown of Twitch Film called 'All Around Us' "[a]t once sweepingly panoramic and microscopically intimate", adding that "Hashiguchi's fourth feature parallels the pains and struggles of the married couple at its center with the changes in Japan itself, touching on such major events as the 1990s economic collapse, the 1995 Tokyo subway sarin gas attacks, and others."
