[ Story ]
Based on popular writer Isaka Kotaro's bestselling novel, reworked into an emotionally charged mystery by promising director Mori Junichi (Laundry). A puzzling series of arsons grip the city of Sendai, causing the tragic history of one family to resurface. The clever storytelling is imbued with the struggles of life and familial love.
Izumi (Kase Ryo) and Haru (Okada Masaki) are close brothers separated in age only by two years. Izumi is a university genetics student while Haru believes himself to be Picasso reborn. The brothers grew up in a home that placed importance on strong family ties, receiving all the love of their parents—mild-mannered father Masashi (Kohinata Fumiyo) and beautiful mother Rieko (Suzuki Kyoka), who passed away seven years ago. Meanwhile, the local city of Sendai has been hit by a string of arson incidents. While working part-time as a graffiti cleaner in town, Haru discovers mysterious graffiti near the scene of each of the fires. Suspecting a link to the arsons, Haru invites Izumi to stake out the city streets at night.
