Synopsis

Sasaki Shinichi (Tsumabuki Satoshi) watches in court as his childhood friend Tanaka Yukino (Takeuchi Yuko) receives a death sentence for allegedly setting fire to her ex-boyfriend’s apartment and burning his wife and child to death. Knowing Yukino from childhood and harboring certain guilt, Shinichi intuitively believes she is not the real culprit. Desperate to save Yukino, he searches for allies and visits various people who knew her life – her sister, middle school classmates, and others – but everywhere he goes, he hears about her horrific past. He reunites with Tange Sho (Arai Hirofumi), a lawyer who was also Yukino’s childhood friend, but they gradually begin to disagree. Meanwhile, Yukino calmly awaits her approaching execution. Prison guard Sadoyama Hitomi (Yoshine Kyoko) finds herself mysteriously drawn to Yukino’s demeanor.
