Since his wife (played by Maki Sakai) died in a hit-and-run traffic accident five years ago, Kenichi Nakamura (played by Masaharu Sakai), the director of a small iron factory, has been deeply saddened by the loss of his wife and unable to extricate himself. In the past years, his wife's last phone message and her belongings before her death aroused his endless remembrance and also blocked this dispirited and sorrowful man from moving towards a new life. In contrast, the perpetrator of that year, Hiroshi Kijima (played by Takayuki Yamada), was released from prison after serving a two-year sentence, but seemed to have no awareness of self-reflection at all. He brutally beat up his colleague, Hoshino (played by Tomoro Taguchi), who was suspected of promoting his past, and forced his good friend, Kobayashi (played by Tsuyoshi Ayano), to do all kinds of evil deeds with him. One day, Nakajima began to receive one assassination notice after another, with the other party declaring that he would die with him. On a stormy night, the decisions of the two men were inevitable... This film is adapted from the play of the same name by the renowned playwright Masako Akahori.[Collapse]
