[ Story ]

This film marks the return to the director's chair for the first time in fifteen years for Mori Tatsuya, who has stirred up controversy with challenging films like A about the cult Aum Shinrikyo. He lays bare a malady of our times with footage shot at the home of the composer in the news for controversy over ghostwritten songs.
Mori starts shooting at the home of Samuragochi Mamoru, who is said to have built his reputation on works that he falsely claimed to be his own. What is the truth? Who is lying? What is accurate? In the shocking final twelve minutes of the film, Mori sets off alarm bells about our society's demand for black-andwhite answers.
