The Shore of Empathy

Directed by Taichi Ishikawa

With Takemi Fujii and Sen Fujimaru

A woman betrayed by her fiancé's affair, impulsively murders her unfaithful partner’s lover - her own roommate. She stuffs the lifeless body into a suitcase and sets off by car, determined to cast it to the depths of the sea. But as she drives, the supposedly dead woman crawls out of the suitcase. “I went through all the trouble of killing you. Couldn’t you at least stay dead.” “Looks like the saying, “Dead men tell no tales” doesn’t apply to me.” As the two begin to unleash their pent up frustrations, they start untangling threads of memory that twist, clash and converge.
