Sorezore no Dangai

14-year-old Shikata Kyosuke (Watanabe Ao), who behaves violently at home and cuts classes, is murdered by his classmate Yamaki Mitsuru (Shimizu Hiroto) one day. At first, Kyosuke’s father Kyoichiro (Endo Kenichi) is suspected by the police. He is even fiercely criticised by society for erupting in anger at Mitsuru. Mitsuru has been arrested but is protected by the juvenile law and will not be given fitting punishment for his crime. As his family (Tanaka Misako, Nagase Riko, Nimura Sawa) breaks up, Kyoichiro turns his hatred on Mitsuru’s mother Hatsumi (Tanaka Misato) and seeks her out. However, he realises that the woman he should not forgive is suffering from loneliness, and is greatly shaken. Kyosuke and Hatsumi who are carrying heavy crosses of their own, soon get close to each other in their search for momentary release and fall headlong into a forbidden love.
