| A story of friendship against all odds. |
| |
The body of an unidentified man is found in the bush in Hokkaido; by his side lies the body of a dog, who seems to have died much later. Touched by the bond between dog and master, caseworker Kyosuke sets out on a journey to discover the man’s identity. Both heart-warming and heart-wrenching, this road movie follows Kyosuke as he traces their final footsteps along the coast of eastern Japan, coming to terms with his own past along the way. The film is based on a best-selling manga story which echoes the legend of the faithful dog Hachiko. It stars Tetsuji Tamayama (Norwegian Wood, Hankyu Densha) as Kyosuke, and veteran actor Toshiyuki Nishida (The Magic Hour, Space Battleship Yamato) as master of the smilingly loyal dog, Happy. |
