Keisuke Yoshida builds his searing new drama around an unforgiving question: what do adults owe a young person who cannot feel another’s pain? Kengo Nishi, a former gangster and ex-convict, runs a residential home for troubled youth, drawing on his own past to reach them, his harsh methods unsettling everyone around him. When a desperate teacher persuades a frightened couple to place their son Kaito, a fifteen-year-old with no apparent empathy and a record of violence, the home is pushed to its limit. Kaito escapes, commits a brutal assault, and drags Nishi’s criminal past into the light, just as Kaito’s father arrives with a revelation that binds the two men together. Yoshida refuses easy comfort while holding hard to a fragile faith in the possibility of change.
