His wife gone and his daughter still bitter about his poor parenting skills, recent retiree Matsutaro Yasuda (Ken Ogata) retreats to a crumbling apartment building in the Japanese countryside. Upon witnessing the neglect with which his new, loose living neighbor Mayumi (Saki Takaoka) treats her five year-old daughter Sachi (Hana Sugiura), Matsutaro determines to protect the innocent child at all costs. When Mayumi's violent boyfriend Koji (Tomokazu Ohashi) attempts to have his way with the frightened girl one night, stealthy Matsutaro knocks the pervert unconscious and spirits the young girl away to safety. Later, as aimless Japanese boy Wataru (Shota Matsuda) joins the pair on their curious journey, seasoned Detective Iwai (Eiji Okuda) vows to reunite mother and daughter even if it means bending the rules of standard police procedure. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
