SYNOPSIS

The boy is 15 years old. Except the birthmark around one of the eyes, he looks no different than any ordinary student at junior high. We see him pilfering at classrooms and shoplifting at convenience stores. He seems fearless when hs steals petty cash, some canned meat or ready-to-eat rice. For several days, he keeps an eye on a girl in tis neighborhood. One day he breaks into the girl's apartment with nonchalance, where he runs into her mom alone.

DIRECTING INTENTION

I'd felt it from the young boy. How many times does it repeat that the wound deepens and heals? Where does it come from? This film is about such his face. sympathize with the boy.
