    Based on a true story this is a standard, unfortunately, tale of a teen who's raped, blamed for it, disowned by her family and then enters the sex industry. There's a few too many "You only perceive what's important to you when it's gone" dialog moments, but I enjoyed the sad and... read more dreamy, as opposed to angry or exploitive, tone of the film. Three good performances included. Jo Odagiri is solid and sweet as the good guy; Hiroshi Abe brings humor and strange insights as a flamboyant 'benefactor'; and Saki Kagami in the lead role, with baby fat in her cheeks, plays naive but smart through faith, and seems like her innocence might be unmasked at any moment but it never quite is. This is a sad and melancholy story, not a sensationalized one.
