The verdict
There are not yet enough audience votes to give this a reliable score. It is not currently playing in Hong Kong cinemas. 126 minutes.
What to expect
Anshul Chauhan’s Japanese drama centres on a man whose estranged brother’s return forces a reckoning with long-buried family history. The movie runs a full 126 minutes and sustains a quiet, character-driven pace — it earns its length if you have the patience for slow-burn domestic tension, but anyone looking for narrative momentum will find it testing. Takashi Kawaguchi, Maho Nonami, Kenzo Shirahama and Yuya Endo lead the cast. This is a single festival screening for HKLGFF 2026 on 19 September, not a commercial run, so it will play only at the festival’s chosen venue. The movie is in Japanese with English subtitles. Certificate and format are still unconfirmed; check the HKLGFF programme or call the box office before booking.
