This work marks actor Yuji Ota's first challenge as a director, and Itsuki Samejima, the head of Kimino Atelier, serves solely as the scriptwriter for the first time.
Passionate actors from various genres and generations gather to deliver a suspenseful story centered on human connections, ways of being, and the form of family.
Enjoy the chemical reaction of three eras: "Showa-born director" x "Heisei-born scriptwriter" x "Performed in Reiwa."
Synopsis
A homeless man turns himself in.
Everyone doubts his words.
"I killed someone."
This is a story of salvation.
A story of people who want to believe that.
"Life is a rough sea, isn't it?"
"Life is just ripples, isn't it?"
She replies to the man and continues her words.
"I want to melt into the waves."
That farewell spreads like a wave, eventually engulfing those around it.
Was the moon that illuminated the two that day a dream seen in a doze?
Whose anthem is the voice echoing in the interrogation room?
A suspense where unbreakable love and unyielding justice intersect.
