Ai (a superbly laconic Tomona Hirota) haunts the streets of Osaka dressed as a mascot. After going home with a stranger, she wakes up to find footage of their intimate encounter uploaded to a porn site. As all systems of recourse and remedy fail her and her sense of dislocation and alienation intensifies, Ai resorts to a strange solution.
Following the rap-inflected drama Yamato (California) and the globe-trotting Tourism, Daisuke Miyazaki unveils another potent subversion of the so-called monolith of Japanese culture. Videophobia unfolds as a paranoid techno-thriller about identity, set on the backstreets of an industrial and multicultural Osaka captured here in beautiful, stark black-and-white. Concerns with obsessive image-making and issues of surveillance and consent in the digital age are embodied in the plight of a young woman from the city’s Koreatown; in an eerie film about the self – watching us as much as we watch it.

00:01:00.518 --> 00:01:02.479
Touch yourself.
00:01:05.774 --> 00:01:07.150
Come on.
00:01:22.207 --> 00:01:23.291
Good.
00:01:25.460 --> 00:01:26.294
Slowly.
00:01:37.222 --> 00:01:38.181
Nicely.
00:01:47.732 --> 00:01:49.150
Does that feel good?
00:01:55.281 --> 00:01:56.658
You're so nasty...
00:02:13.299 --> 00:02:14.759
Nastier...
00:02:19.848 --> 00:02:20.807
More.
00:02:36.406 --> 00:02:37.365
Good girl.
00:02:52.088 --> 00:02:53.298
Oh my god.
00:02:59.137 --> 00:03:00.346
Take off your underwear...
00:03:02.599 --> 00:03:04.350
Let me see your pussy...
00:03:35.381 --> 00:03:37.592
Ai, you're finally up.
00:03:38.968 --> 00:03:43.139
Listen, Sis, We're going
to Tokyo next week.
00:03:43.181 --> 00:03:44.307
Why?
00:03:44.307 --> 00:03:47.477
We're going to Disneyland, a TVXQ concert,
00:03:47.518 --> 00:03:50.271
an Insta-worthy cafe in Aoyama...
00:03:52.023 --> 00:03:55.235
-What else?
-The Off-White shop.
00:03:55.276 --> 00:03:56.486
Oh, yeah!
00:03:56.569 --> 00:04:00.198
Which area do you think we should stay in?
00:04:00.281 --> 00:04:02.784
Just find a cheap hotel downtown.
00:04:03.243 --> 00:04:08.081
But Tokyo is big. Don't you know
a cheap and convenient area?
00:04:09.707 --> 00:04:11.251
-No idea.
-What?
00:04:11.417 --> 00:04:13.544
You used to live over there.
00:04:13.962 --> 00:04:16.631
Yeah, but I didn't live in Tokyo.
00:04:17.048 --> 00:04:18.091
What?
00:04:19.384 --> 00:04:20.802
I lived in Kanagawa.
00:04:20.969 --> 00:04:22.845
I'm not familiar with Tokyo.
00:04:23.012 --> 00:04:26.057
Isn't Kanagawa basically Tokyo?
00:04:26.224 --> 00:04:28.351
-No, it's not.
-Close enough.
00:04:29.018 --> 00:04:33.189
Disneyland is basically the
same as Universal Studios.
00:04:33.564 --> 00:04:35.149
That's not true at all!
00:04:35.191 --> 00:04:39.779
Exactly. The level of realism
in Disneyland is much higher.
00:04:39.821 --> 00:04:40.863
What?
00:04:40.989 --> 00:04:43.116
Why don't you take Misato?
00:04:43.283 --> 00:04:46.911
Cause she doesn't care
about anything but her phone.
00:04:47.078 --> 00:04:48.496
I care.
00:04:48.663 --> 00:04:50.164
-About what?
-What?
00:04:50.331 --> 00:04:53.626
Shut up. I can't focus on the match!
00:04:53.793 --> 00:04:58.381
Auntie, you make the most
noise watching TV all day.
00:04:58.881 --> 00:05:02.677
Got a problem with my
once-in-four-year pleasure?
00:05:02.844 --> 00:05:03.761
I do.
00:05:03.928 --> 00:05:05.805
-What?
-What?
00:05:06.556 --> 00:05:09.642
What's so good about a smartphone?
00:05:09.809 --> 00:05:11.644
It's better than soccer.
00:05:11.811 --> 00:05:12.854
Shut up!
00:05:13.021 --> 00:05:15.606
Akiko, get to work!
00:08:36.641 --> 00:08:37.975
Beautiful.
00:08:39.644 --> 00:08:42.980
Can't tell which is outside on these socks.
00:08:43.147 --> 00:08:44.732
It must be this side.
00:08:44.899 --> 00:08:46.567
No, it's the opposite.
00:08:46.734 --> 00:08:48.319
This side is ugly.
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:51.781
Hello.
00:08:51.989 --> 00:08:53.032
Hey.
00:08:53.324 --> 00:08:54.116
Oh, Ai.
00:08:54.951 --> 00:08:58.746
Why don't you start
working on this side already?
00:09:00.164 --> 00:09:01.624
I'll think about it.
00:09:03.543 --> 00:09:04.752
Hello.
00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:06.337
Hey, guys.
00:09:06.546 --> 00:09:08.506
Stop staring at them.
00:09:26.107 --> 00:09:28.401
Look, they're so cute!
00:09:28.568 --> 00:09:31.696
-Not really.
-What? I love mascots!
00:09:33.114 --> 00:09:35.324
Say cheese.
00:09:37.076 --> 00:09:39.662
-How is it?
-Take a look.
00:09:40.496 --> 00:09:42.498
-Look, it's cute.
-Yeah.
00:09:42.665 --> 00:09:44.333
You're cuter in the picture.
00:09:44.500 --> 00:09:45.585
Come on!
00:09:55.970 --> 00:09:57.763
Oh, good job today.
00:09:57.930 --> 00:09:59.557
Great work.
00:10:07.648 --> 00:10:08.649
See you next time.
00:10:08.816 --> 00:10:10.192
Thank you.
00:11:12.505 --> 00:11:15.883
Good. Get comfortable with each other.
00:11:16.342 --> 00:11:18.594
Be aware of one another.
00:11:21.305 --> 00:11:23.057
You, don' be shy!
00:11:26.352 --> 00:11:28.479
How did it feel as a kid?
00:11:29.313 --> 00:11:32.441
Making body contact
wasn't a problem, was it?
00:11:32.775 --> 00:11:33.776
Looking good.
00:11:39.865 --> 00:11:41.033
B'sason!
00:11:45.413 --> 00:11:47.832
"Let me tell you what I mean."
00:11:48.124 --> 00:11:50.376
"I'm timid and fainthearted"
00:11:50.543 --> 00:11:56.090
"because of the ghosts that hang about me,
who I can never quite shake off."
00:11:56.257 --> 00:11:58.217
"What do you say hangs about you?"
00:11:59.760 --> 00:12:02.012
I still can feel the emotion.
00:12:02.847 --> 00:12:05.391
Try to get rid of your emotions.
00:12:05.683 --> 00:12:06.684
Okay.
00:12:07.143 --> 00:12:09.854
And try to speak with no accent.
00:12:10.062 --> 00:12:11.063
Okay.
00:12:11.647 --> 00:12:13.232
Go on, Ms. Koyama.
00:12:13.524 --> 00:12:14.483
Sure.
00:12:15.067 --> 00:12:16.736
Ghosts.
00:12:17.361 --> 00:12:21.073
When I heard Regina and Oswald in there,
00:12:21.282 --> 00:12:24.744
it was as though ghosts rose up before me.
00:12:25.327 --> 00:12:30.791
But I almost think we are
all of us ghosts, Pastor.
00:12:31.542 --> 00:12:33.961
It's not only what we have inherited
00:12:34.128 --> 00:12:37.256
from our father and
mother that walks in us.
00:12:37.423 --> 00:12:42.011
It's all sorts of dead ideas,
lifeless old beliefs and so forth.
00:12:42.511 --> 00:12:47.516
They have no vitality, but
they cling to us all the same,
00:12:47.683 --> 00:12:50.102
and we cannot shake them off.
00:12:50.728 --> 00:12:52.271
Whenever I read a newspaper,
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:56.233
I seem to see ghosts
gliding between the lines.
00:12:56.901 --> 00:12:59.528
There must be ghosts all the country over,
00:12:59.737 --> 00:13:01.739
as thick as the sands of the sea.
00:13:02.448 --> 00:13:06.994
And then we are so
pitifully afraid of the light.
00:13:08.329 --> 00:13:11.248
I see something over there.
00:13:15.252 --> 00:13:17.213
It's on your shoulder.
00:13:21.592 --> 00:13:24.720
I played someone opposite of myself,
00:13:24.887 --> 00:13:28.307
a girl who's in touch
with her spirituality.
00:13:29.642 --> 00:13:31.644
Yeah, that was good.
00:13:33.312 --> 00:13:35.689
Hi, I'm Ai Aoyama,
00:13:35.856 --> 00:13:38.234
born and raised in Nerima, Tokyo.
00:13:38.400 --> 00:13:40.986
I started acting when I was 15.
00:13:41.153 --> 00:13:44.782
While working at a Starbucks in Roppongi,
00:13:44.949 --> 00:13:48.994
I act in movies and
music videos occasionally.
00:13:49.161 --> 00:13:52.665
I'm here in Osaka today to shoot a film.
00:13:53.582 --> 00:13:57.670
I want to be an actress
like Isabelle Huppert.
00:14:01.882 --> 00:14:06.011
It wasn't bad, but it
sounded a bit too ordinary.
00:14:07.179 --> 00:14:08.430
Okay.
00:14:09.473 --> 00:14:12.017
Use your imagination more.
00:14:13.811 --> 00:14:17.731
Try to dig deeply into
yourself and the reality.
00:14:18.899 --> 00:14:19.859
Okay.
00:14:22.736 --> 00:14:26.824
Hi, I'm Akiyuki Ido,
born and bred in Osaka.
00:14:26.991 --> 00:14:29.994
In Japanese calendar, I was born in...
00:14:31.453 --> 00:14:32.872
some years ago.
00:14:33.038 --> 00:14:34.039
I'm 24.
00:14:34.206 --> 00:14:38.210
I strive to be an actor
while working at Zara.
00:14:38.377 --> 00:14:39.295
Right...
00:14:39.503 --> 00:14:43.591
It sounds like yourself,
so let's do it again.
00:14:45.175 --> 00:14:49.930
Even if it's fake, playing a
person that's different from you
00:14:50.180 --> 00:14:52.224
is the purpose of the class.
00:14:53.142 --> 00:14:54.226
Yes.
00:14:54.810 --> 00:14:56.520
Try again.
00:14:59.231 --> 00:15:03.152
Hello, I'm Akiyuki Ido.
00:15:03.819 --> 00:15:07.448
I was born and bred in Osaka.
00:15:07.865 --> 00:15:12.077
Born in the 7th year of Heisei
in the Japanese calendar.
00:15:12.328 --> 00:15:16.165
I strive to be an actor
while working at Zara.
00:15:17.291 --> 00:15:19.293
It got more boring.
00:15:20.753 --> 00:15:21.837
Okay.
00:15:23.172 --> 00:15:25.883
It's just a normal self-introduction.
00:15:27.801 --> 00:15:31.055
The first try was at least more like you.
00:15:36.435 --> 00:15:40.105
But playing a person
that's different from you
00:15:40.272 --> 00:15:42.274
is the purpose of the class.
00:15:42.566 --> 00:15:43.651
Understand?
00:15:43.984 --> 00:15:44.985
Yes.
00:15:48.280 --> 00:15:53.494
Just fake it and play
someone that's opposite to you.
00:15:57.957 --> 00:15:58.999
Okay.
00:16:01.502 --> 00:16:02.670
Go ahead.
00:16:04.797 --> 00:16:07.675
Hello, I'm Akiyuki Ido.
00:16:07.967 --> 00:16:11.512
I was born and bred in Osaka.
00:16:12.429 --> 00:16:14.807
No, I mean...
00:16:14.974 --> 00:16:17.685
I was raised in Shingu, Wakayama.
00:16:18.143 --> 00:16:20.187
I was born in 19...
00:16:21.730 --> 00:16:23.691
1989
00:16:27.444 --> 00:16:29.238
I'm almost 30.
00:16:38.205 --> 00:16:39.832
What are you laughing at?
00:16:41.750 --> 00:16:44.294
Oh, nothing.
00:16:53.137 --> 00:16:54.888
It's fine. Keep going.
00:17:02.730 --> 00:17:05.899
What's so funny about me trying hard?
00:17:06.942 --> 00:17:08.027
Huh?
00:17:08.277 --> 00:17:09.028
Hey.
00:17:11.238 --> 00:17:12.740
Answer me.
00:17:14.158 --> 00:17:15.242
Yo.
00:17:17.369 --> 00:17:18.912
I said answer me!
00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:21.915
Hold on, I'm sorry for laughing,
00:17:22.082 --> 00:17:24.209
but your acting was good, so...
00:17:24.293 --> 00:17:26.879
You didn't laugh at the girls.
00:17:27.337 --> 00:17:31.467
Hey, you take it easy on girls, don't you?
00:17:32.176 --> 00:17:34.219
-No.
-Then what?
00:17:34.762 --> 00:17:37.806
If I can't act, that's because of you.
00:17:38.098 --> 00:17:40.309
How can you even laugh?
00:17:41.268 --> 00:17:44.354
You said it was boring
'cause it sounded like me.
00:17:44.980 --> 00:17:46.774
Are you saying I'm boring?
00:17:48.567 --> 00:17:50.778
What do you know about me?
00:17:52.821 --> 00:17:55.949
That's what I feel every time.
00:17:56.909 --> 00:18:00.204
A guy called Kagawa never apologizes.
00:18:04.291 --> 00:18:08.921
We're on the receiving side
of Mr.Higashio's lessons.
00:18:09.171 --> 00:18:12.925
But he plays favorites with some students,
00:18:13.092 --> 00:18:14.968
and his words are harsh.
00:18:15.844 --> 00:18:19.890
I don't agree 100 percent
with Ido's approach, though.
00:18:20.099 --> 00:18:23.977
We're the ones paying
for it in the first place.
00:18:24.561 --> 00:18:28.482
But it's not right to yell
or grab at our coach.
00:18:28.565 --> 00:18:32.986
I didn't say it is, but we
can at least raise a protest.
00:18:33.112 --> 00:18:35.906
Ido was literally raising his voice.
00:18:36.782 --> 00:18:39.159
After being insulted like that,
00:18:39.326 --> 00:18:42.454
I don't think Mr. Higashio
can teach anymore.
00:18:43.497 --> 00:18:47.668
Besides, you've never
said anything like that before.
00:18:48.168 --> 00:18:51.547
You just jumped on Ido's bandwagon, huh?
00:18:51.713 --> 00:18:54.967
No. When something is wrong, I say so.
00:18:55.134 --> 00:18:56.844
Then why haven't you done it?
00:18:57.010 --> 00:18:59.721
Why are you defending Mr. Higashio?
00:19:00.055 --> 00:19:02.099
It's not like that.
00:19:02.474 --> 00:19:05.060
With the way he teaches,
00:19:05.227 --> 00:19:08.605
I feel like my acting
range has expanded.
00:19:08.981 --> 00:19:14.153
I just think there's a good
reason for his harsh attitude.
00:19:15.154 --> 00:19:17.114
Do you mean he's acting?
00:19:17.406 --> 00:19:18.198
Yup.
00:19:18.991 --> 00:19:22.077
Still, he's going a bit too far.
00:19:22.536 --> 00:19:25.164
It's a matter of how you take it.
00:19:26.456 --> 00:19:29.293
Are the directors like this in Tokyo?
00:19:42.806 --> 00:19:44.975
Who's up for another round?
00:19:45.142 --> 00:19:46.685
Let's go.
00:19:46.852 --> 00:19:48.729
Who wants to go to a club?
00:19:48.896 --> 00:19:50.105
Who's coming?
00:19:50.272 --> 00:19:51.982
Yeah, let's go.
00:20:48.330 --> 00:20:51.708
Hey, are you okay?
00:20:51.875 --> 00:20:54.586
-Hang on.
-Let's go to the bathroom.
00:20:54.753 --> 00:20:56.546
It's over there.
00:20:58.423 --> 00:20:59.758
Excuse us.
00:21:47.472 --> 00:21:50.851
You don't wanna dance?
00:22:34.394 --> 00:22:35.687
What's your name?
00:22:36.938 --> 00:22:38.648
How do I call you?
00:22:38.648 --> 00:22:39.608
Ai.
00:22:40.609 --> 00:22:41.777
It's Ai.
00:22:43.403 --> 00:22:44.696
And you?
00:22:46.573 --> 00:22:48.408
As yet I have no name.
00:23:19.147 --> 00:23:20.899
Something to drink?
00:23:21.566 --> 00:23:23.151
Can I have some water?
00:23:23.193 --> 00:23:24.111
Okay.
00:23:37.165 --> 00:23:39.126
What a beautiful view.
00:23:43.547 --> 00:23:46.133
Who are you?
00:23:50.804 --> 00:23:52.764
Just kidding.
00:23:55.016 --> 00:23:56.017
Here.
00:23:56.893 --> 00:23:58.311
Thanks.
00:24:00.689 --> 00:24:01.815
Come sit down.
00:24:02.149 --> 00:24:03.150
Okay.
00:24:08.989 --> 00:24:10.657
It's a nice place.
00:24:10.824 --> 00:24:13.034
-You think so?
-Yeah.
00:24:14.411 --> 00:24:16.163
What do you do?
00:24:16.913 --> 00:24:21.918
I work for my father's cosmetic company.
00:24:25.672 --> 00:24:27.007
Why do you ask?
00:24:27.257 --> 00:24:28.258
Because...
00:24:29.551 --> 00:24:34.306
you have to have a decent
job to live in a place like this.
00:24:36.016 --> 00:24:38.393
I'm not a decent person, though.
00:27:36.696 --> 00:27:37.906
Tsuruhashi Station.
00:27:37.947 --> 00:27:41.534
My grandfather is from Jeju, South Korea.
00:27:41.576 --> 00:27:45.372
He was recruited to a mine
in Hokkaido during the war.
00:27:46.289 --> 00:27:49.793
He came to Osaka relying on his relatives.
00:27:49.959 --> 00:27:54.547
My grandmother was born in Gyeonggi-do.
00:27:54.714 --> 00:27:56.049
She migrated by Kimigayo ship to
Osaka and started working at a factory.
00:27:56.091 --> 00:27:58.385
Ikuno Korea Town She
migrated by Kimigayo ship
00:27:58.426 --> 00:28:00.553
to Osaka and started working at a factory.
00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:03.682
But then her eyesight got worse,
00:28:04.057 --> 00:28:09.354
and she was introduced to a
mudang, a Korean female shaman.
00:28:09.521 --> 00:28:14.359
I don't know if that helped,
but her eyesight recovered.
00:28:14.526 --> 00:28:17.821
Afterward, my grandma became religious.
00:28:17.987 --> 00:28:21.157
She often went to a temple in Mount Ikoma,
00:28:21.324 --> 00:28:24.619
praying to the Korean
god even after marrying.
00:28:24.786 --> 00:28:28.915
When I was little, just once,
00:28:29.082 --> 00:28:34.003
she took me to the prayer gathering.
00:28:34.337 --> 00:28:40.468
I was scolded badly by my father,
who hated those expensive rituals.
00:28:41.219 --> 00:28:43.054
That's about it.
00:28:43.930 --> 00:28:46.307
-What's that?
-They're cute!
00:28:46.599 --> 00:28:48.685
-Let's go see them. -Yeah.
00:28:48.852 --> 00:28:51.062
Oh, it's a bunny!
00:28:51.229 --> 00:28:53.148
Say cheese!
00:28:53.732 --> 00:28:56.025
-Okay.
-How is it?
00:28:56.192 --> 00:28:58.278
-Looks great.
-I love it.
00:28:58.445 --> 00:29:00.655
You guys have perfect smiles!
00:29:00.822 --> 00:29:03.491
-Good luck. -See ya.
00:29:04.075 --> 00:29:05.285
I'm starving.
00:29:05.452 --> 00:29:07.454
Yeah. Let's go eat.
00:33:28.673 --> 00:33:30.466
The ground is shaking.
00:33:34.971 --> 00:33:36.806
I don't think so.
00:33:37.140 --> 00:33:38.891
Yeah, it's shaking.
00:33:39.058 --> 00:33:41.060
Maybe it's an aftershock.
00:33:41.394 --> 00:33:44.897
With this many people,
this is what you feel.
00:33:45.189 --> 00:33:47.984
Stop joking, or another one will hit.
00:33:48.151 --> 00:33:51.696
Sis, don't say such a thing. It scares me.
00:34:43.039 --> 00:34:44.415
Good evening.
00:34:44.499 --> 00:34:45.500
Oh.
00:34:54.217 --> 00:34:56.636
Have you eaten yet?
00:34:59.931 --> 00:35:00.890
Not yet.
00:35:01.432 --> 00:35:02.558
Wanna go eat?
00:35:04.560 --> 00:35:05.812
Yeah.
00:35:07.396 --> 00:35:11.150
Then, I'll go change, so just grab a seat.
00:35:55.278 --> 00:35:56.362
What?
00:35:56.946 --> 00:35:58.489
What's this?
00:36:00.199 --> 00:36:02.118
That's a camera.
00:36:05.121 --> 00:36:06.330
8 mm.
00:36:07.832 --> 00:36:10.001
Have you heard of an 8 mm camera?
00:36:10.418 --> 00:36:11.377
No.
00:36:11.752 --> 00:36:14.922
Fathers used it on holidays in the past.
00:36:15.089 --> 00:36:17.300
It's a film camera that rattles.
00:36:22.972 --> 00:36:26.309
I got it after we used
it for our a commercial.
00:36:26.976 --> 00:36:29.896
But there's no film in
it, so you can't use it.
00:36:31.272 --> 00:36:33.524
It doesn't work?
00:36:33.733 --> 00:36:36.110
Well, we shot the commercial with it.
00:36:36.694 --> 00:36:38.237
I think It works.
00:36:38.738 --> 00:36:42.283
Shooting film is totally
different from digital.
00:36:45.745 --> 00:36:48.456
But it can be too much work.
00:36:48.623 --> 00:36:51.834
It takes days to order and develop films.
00:36:54.921 --> 00:36:56.756
Why don't you try it?
00:36:57.381 --> 00:36:59.634
It can be more fun than using your phone.
00:36:59.800 --> 00:37:01.594
No rush to return it.
00:37:04.472 --> 00:37:05.473
Okay.
00:37:08.226 --> 00:37:10.561
Anyway, can I change now?
00:37:11.729 --> 00:37:13.022
Um...
00:37:15.358 --> 00:37:16.817
I'll come again.
00:37:17.151 --> 00:37:18.194
What?
00:38:01.445 --> 00:38:04.615
Ah, watch it!
00:38:04.782 --> 00:38:07.868
That was real close!
00:38:08.035 --> 00:38:12.373
-That was a big play by the goalie.
-It was amazing!
00:38:12.540 --> 00:38:16.210
The other team almost made a score!
00:38:16.377 --> 00:38:18.254
I missed that part.
00:38:18.963 --> 00:38:22.341
Sis, you're not even watching the final?
00:38:24.677 --> 00:38:28.973
-He headed the ball so hard.
-That must've hurt.
00:38:29.140 --> 00:38:31.225
Wow, that was incredible.
00:40:17.331 --> 00:40:18.791
There she is.
00:40:18.958 --> 00:40:20.960
-How are you? -It's been a while.
00:40:21.127 --> 00:40:22.169
Hey, guys.
00:40:23.170 --> 00:40:25.923
-It's hot today.
-So hot.
00:40:26.090 --> 00:40:28.217
The sun is so strong.
00:40:28.426 --> 00:40:29.760
Let's go then.
00:40:31.053 --> 00:40:34.348
It's been a while since we came here last.
00:40:34.515 --> 00:40:35.808
When was that?
00:40:54.243 --> 00:40:55.786
This is cute.
00:40:55.786 --> 00:40:58.747
She is sitting so weirdly!
00:40:59.999 --> 00:41:03.169
She looks like she’s leading us.
00:41:05.463 --> 00:41:08.174
Say cheese!
00:41:10.384 --> 00:41:12.845
Isn't it super hot today?
00:41:13.012 --> 00:41:15.681
It'll exceed 40 degrees Celsius.
00:41:15.848 --> 00:41:17.725
That's crazy.
00:41:17.892 --> 00:41:20.811
It's the last summer of the Heisei Era.
00:41:20.978 --> 00:41:22.938
It'll be unforgettable.
00:41:23.981 --> 00:41:26.650
They're trying to do business with it.
00:41:26.817 --> 00:41:31.780
They said Osaka might be the
hottest place in Japan today.
00:41:32.239 --> 00:41:33.824
That's so Osaka.
00:41:35.618 --> 00:41:39.163
-They're like, who knows?
-That's funny.
00:41:39.371 --> 00:41:41.332
We rode on the merry-go-round twice.
00:41:41.499 --> 00:41:44.668
It's pretty rare at our age.
00:41:44.835 --> 00:41:47.338
Where do we go next time?
00:41:48.255 --> 00:41:50.341
-I wanna travel abroad.
-Sounds good.
00:41:50.674 --> 00:41:52.676
-I wanna go to Taiwan.
-Why?
00:41:52.843 --> 00:41:54.595
-I wanna eat dumplings,
-Dumplings?
00:41:54.762 --> 00:41:59.475
and Taiwanese shaved
ice that's popular these days.
00:41:59.642 --> 00:42:02.061
-You're a foodie.
-I love eating.
00:42:02.228 --> 00:42:05.105
-I wanna go to Malaysia.
-Why?
00:42:05.356 --> 00:42:08.526
I saw it on TV, it seems like a cool place.
00:42:08.692 --> 00:42:10.444
Where about?
00:42:10.486 --> 00:42:11.487
Somewhere...
00:42:11.487 --> 00:42:13.239
Do you really wanna go?
00:42:13.405 --> 00:42:14.782
Yeah, I do.
00:42:14.949 --> 00:42:16.825
We'll go to either one.
00:42:16.992 --> 00:42:18.452
Let's talk again.
00:42:18.619 --> 00:42:20.913
Well, call us anytime, okay?
00:42:21.080 --> 00:42:21.997
I will.
00:42:22.164 --> 00:42:24.792
Thanks for hanging out today.
00:42:25.251 --> 00:42:29.713
You contact us only
when you're feeling down.
00:42:30.005 --> 00:42:31.257
That's right.
00:42:31.423 --> 00:42:35.553
At this age, just being
invited out makes us happy.
00:42:38.055 --> 00:42:39.890
I'll call you guys again.
00:42:40.599 --> 00:42:41.934
All right.
00:42:42.101 --> 00:42:43.143
See you soon.
00:42:43.978 --> 00:42:44.937
Bye-bye
00:42:45.020 --> 00:42:46.021
Bye-bye
00:43:42.703 --> 00:43:43.954
You're back.
00:43:45.456 --> 00:43:46.373
Yes.
00:47:40.399 --> 00:47:42.109
Yeah, can I help you?
00:47:47.281 --> 00:47:48.282
Hey,
00:47:49.408 --> 00:47:50.909
Hey, what the fuck?
00:47:54.621 --> 00:47:56.748
Lady, who the fuck are you?
00:47:57.749 --> 00:47:58.750
Who are you?
00:48:00.335 --> 00:48:02.421
-Do you know this chick?
-Tourists?
00:48:02.462 --> 00:48:03.463
Who are you?
00:48:03.797 --> 00:48:04.798
From Italy?
00:48:05.048 --> 00:48:06.508
-Yeah?
-This is our room?
00:48:07.175 --> 00:48:08.176
Airbnb?
00:48:09.928 --> 00:48:11.305
Airbnb.
00:48:13.473 --> 00:48:14.474
Understand?
00:48:36.163 --> 00:48:38.415
Report.
00:48:39.958 --> 00:48:44.212
Content Removal Request.
00:48:53.347 --> 00:49:00.771
I swear, under penalty of perjury...
00:49:16.912 --> 00:49:18.080
Hello.
00:49:18.747 --> 00:49:20.165
Hi.
00:49:26.004 --> 00:49:28.674
Ms. Park, you're here today...
00:49:29.633 --> 00:49:32.094
for being a victim of the provision
00:49:32.260 --> 00:49:36.974
of a private sexual image
recording to the Internet.
00:49:37.224 --> 00:49:42.020
Can you remember the person's name now?
00:49:43.480 --> 00:49:44.648
No.
00:49:45.565 --> 00:49:48.360
How about his first or last name?
00:49:48.443 --> 00:49:50.362
You can't remember anything?
00:49:52.239 --> 00:49:53.323
No.
00:49:53.532 --> 00:49:54.992
Okay.
00:50:00.247 --> 00:50:01.748
Well...
00:50:01.915 --> 00:50:07.504
Regarding the apartment address,
which you just submitted to us,
00:50:08.880 --> 00:50:13.885
we've found out that it's used
as an illegal private lodging.
00:50:15.762 --> 00:50:20.559
It's registered in the name of a
trading company in Indonesia.
00:50:21.309 --> 00:50:25.188
Unfortunately, we couldn't
find out many details.
00:50:26.314 --> 00:50:30.569
We'll continue to look
for this 180 centimeter-tall,
00:50:30.736 --> 00:50:35.824
medium-built man, who
works at a cosmetic company.
00:50:35.991 --> 00:50:39.119
If he ever contacts you,
00:50:39.286 --> 00:50:42.164
please let us know immediately.
00:50:44.374 --> 00:50:45.542
Yes.
00:50:46.376 --> 00:50:48.045
Also...
00:50:49.087 --> 00:50:54.009
The website where the video is posted,
00:50:54.801 --> 00:50:58.138
it's called XXX Videos...
00:50:59.014 --> 00:51:00.098
Oh...
00:51:00.849 --> 00:51:04.561
It's XXXX Videos…
00:51:04.728 --> 00:51:06.772
Is it correct?
00:51:08.523 --> 00:51:09.608
Yes.
00:51:10.692 --> 00:51:14.696
Are these the videos?
00:51:15.906 --> 00:51:17.365
Yes, they are.
00:51:19.117 --> 00:51:23.747
We'll request removal of
these videos from the website.
00:51:24.706 --> 00:51:25.582
Okay.
00:51:27.167 --> 00:51:30.587
Please contact us if anything comes up.
00:51:32.631 --> 00:51:33.590
Yes.
00:51:38.303 --> 00:51:39.262
Well.
00:51:42.474 --> 00:51:43.266
Um...
00:51:43.433 --> 00:51:44.309
Yes?
00:51:45.102 --> 00:51:47.270
Will it be okay?
00:51:49.272 --> 00:51:50.982
What do you mean?
00:52:02.077 --> 00:52:06.206
It's said the total annual
viewing time worldwide
00:52:06.373 --> 00:52:13.088
of all the videos on the
website is roughly 5 billion hours.
00:52:13.839 --> 00:52:18.051
In other words, it's about 5 million years.
00:52:19.928 --> 00:52:24.599
It'll be a cosmic amount of time
when combined with other websites.
00:52:26.935 --> 00:52:29.980
But that's the amount of human desires.
00:52:31.398 --> 00:52:37.112
Therefore, you either take
those videos as part of it
00:52:38.405 --> 00:52:41.199
or see the woman as somebody else.
00:52:45.370 --> 00:52:50.500
Because, Ms. Park, there's no
proof that the person is you, right?
00:52:52.961 --> 00:52:56.840
Besides, after meeting you in person,
00:52:57.007 --> 00:52:59.718
you give a different impression...
00:53:00.719 --> 00:53:03.221
My colleagues said so, too.
00:53:06.474 --> 00:53:08.351
All right, then.
00:53:10.687 --> 00:53:13.982
There's also a specialized advisory office,
00:53:14.149 --> 00:53:17.777
so please get a brochure on your way out.
00:53:57.484 --> 00:53:59.527
-Please come in.
-Thanks.
00:54:04.616 --> 00:54:05.784
Follow me.
00:54:40.443 --> 00:54:41.528
Please go in.
00:54:58.336 --> 00:55:00.839
Thank you for coming, Ms. Aoyama.
00:55:02.299 --> 00:55:04.259
Please come this way.
00:55:06.344 --> 00:55:08.596
Everyone, thank you for waiting.
00:55:09.180 --> 00:55:14.019
This is Ms. Aoyama. She's
participating for the first time.
00:55:14.894 --> 00:55:17.522
-Nice to meet you. -Likewise.
00:55:17.731 --> 00:55:18.732
Please.
00:55:20.108 --> 00:55:21.526
Well.
00:55:22.736 --> 00:55:24.321
Shall we start?
00:55:25.655 --> 00:55:29.534
Who would like to speak first today?
00:55:36.666 --> 00:55:38.251
Anyone?
00:55:39.085 --> 00:55:40.211
If I may,
00:55:41.004 --> 00:55:45.342
I'd very much like to
leave the decision to you.
00:55:48.011 --> 00:55:50.847
Then, I'll start first.
00:55:52.182 --> 00:55:53.808
Thank you so much.
00:55:53.975 --> 00:55:56.603
Ms. Mukaeda, please start.
00:55:56.770 --> 00:55:57.896
Yes.
00:55:59.272 --> 00:56:03.526
I had a boyfriend last year.
00:56:04.694 --> 00:56:09.783
When we started dating,
my ex-boyfriend from three years ago
00:56:09.949 --> 00:56:15.705
posted an embarrassing
old picture of me on Twitter.
00:56:16.748 --> 00:56:21.753
I'm not sure if the boyfriend
from last year saw it or not,
00:56:22.504 --> 00:56:25.632
but then our relationship soured.
00:56:27.509 --> 00:56:29.594
We ended up breaking up.
00:56:32.722 --> 00:56:35.767
It's been really tough for me,
00:56:36.267 --> 00:56:38.895
so I came back here today.
00:56:49.322 --> 00:56:51.241
Thank you, Ms. Mukaeda.
00:56:52.117 --> 00:56:53.493
Everyone.
00:56:53.910 --> 00:56:57.455
Let's give words of encouragement
00:56:57.622 --> 00:57:00.708
to Ms. Mukaeda who showed courage.
00:57:02.460 --> 00:57:05.046
You did nothing wrong.
00:57:05.839 --> 00:57:10.510
You yourself haven't changed at all.
00:57:10.677 --> 00:57:13.596
-All right. -Thank you.
00:57:16.266 --> 00:57:19.936
Now, who would like to speak next?
00:57:28.445 --> 00:57:30.989
Thank you, Mr. Kakegawa.
00:57:31.656 --> 00:57:34.117
So, would you do it as always,
00:57:34.284 --> 00:57:38.955
speak to us following
Mr. Mukaeda's experience?
00:57:39.330 --> 00:57:40.373
Yes.
00:57:41.958 --> 00:57:45.628
I had a boyfriend last year.
00:57:45.920 --> 00:57:50.717
When we started dating, my
ex-boyfriend from three years ago
00:57:51.092 --> 00:57:54.846
posted an embarrassing
old photo of me on Facebook.
00:57:55.889 --> 00:58:01.019
I'm not sure if the boyfriend
from last year saw it or not,
00:58:02.312 --> 00:58:04.981
but then our relationship soured.
00:58:05.398 --> 00:58:07.025
So we broke up.
00:58:09.110 --> 00:58:13.364
It's got me confused a
little, so I came here today.
00:58:21.247 --> 00:58:22.540
Thank you.
00:58:22.707 --> 00:58:27.754
Everyone, let's give him
words of encouragement.
00:58:29.464 --> 00:58:31.716
You did nothing wrong.
00:58:32.759 --> 00:58:37.096
You yourself haven't changed at all.
00:58:38.097 --> 00:58:39.098
Okay?
00:58:43.561 --> 00:58:45.021
Next...
00:58:47.524 --> 00:58:48.858
Ms. Kawamura.
00:58:49.901 --> 00:58:51.152
Can you talk to us?
00:58:54.781 --> 00:58:56.741
I'm sorry...
00:59:00.662 --> 00:59:01.621
It's all right.
00:59:05.875 --> 00:59:07.669
How about you, Ms. Kagami?
00:59:08.461 --> 00:59:11.047
Yes... Um...
00:59:13.174 --> 00:59:15.510
I had a boyfriend last year.
00:59:16.553 --> 00:59:20.682
Around then, my ex-boyfriend
from high school went crazy.
00:59:21.391 --> 00:59:23.851
Maybe he wanted to harass me,
00:59:24.018 --> 00:59:28.189
but he shared an old photo
of me over a messaging app.
00:59:29.524 --> 00:59:33.486
I'm not sure if my last
boyfriend saw it or not,
00:59:33.987 --> 00:59:37.365
but our relationship
soured and we broke up.
00:59:38.199 --> 00:59:42.829
The more I think about it,
the more I get confused.
00:59:43.621 --> 00:59:45.290
So I came here.
00:59:53.756 --> 00:59:55.466
Thank you, Ms. Kagami.
00:59:55.633 --> 00:59:59.137
Guys, let's give her
words of encouragement.
01:00:00.388 --> 01:00:02.724
You did nothing wrong.
01:00:03.308 --> 01:00:07.979
You yourself haven't changed at all.
01:00:11.608 --> 01:00:12.942
You're all right.
01:00:15.069 --> 01:00:19.657
Well, then. Ms. Aoyama,
who's here for the first time.
01:00:22.452 --> 01:00:23.745
Can you talk to us?
01:00:30.293 --> 01:00:32.462
I'm not quite ready yet...
01:00:36.382 --> 01:00:38.343
Of course not.
01:00:39.385 --> 01:00:40.803
I'm sorry.
01:00:44.766 --> 01:00:45.516
Ms. Shiraishi.
01:00:48.853 --> 01:00:49.937
Yes.
01:00:52.315 --> 01:00:57.695
I started dating a guy this year.
01:00:58.404 --> 01:01:01.157
Right after that,
01:01:01.324 --> 01:01:05.203
my ex-boyfriend, who I
dated during middle school
01:01:07.330 --> 01:01:12.293
spread my video all over the Internet.
01:01:15.088 --> 01:01:16.631
Then he killed himself.
01:01:18.091 --> 01:01:20.718
He's already gone,
01:01:21.552 --> 01:01:25.014
but I feel like the video exists somewhere.
01:01:27.058 --> 01:01:30.478
I don't even know what to do.
01:01:32.271 --> 01:01:36.109
That's why I came here today.
01:01:48.830 --> 01:01:51.624
Hey, Ms. Aoyama.
01:01:53.376 --> 01:01:55.211
How did you like it?
01:01:55.670 --> 01:01:58.256
I can't really say.
01:01:58.423 --> 01:02:01.509
Sure. It's your first time.
01:02:03.261 --> 01:02:06.764
They're going to the
actual sites next time.
01:02:06.931 --> 01:02:08.057
Actual sites?
01:02:08.224 --> 01:02:10.184
The places where they suffered.
01:02:10.351 --> 01:02:12.061
Oh, really.
01:02:12.603 --> 01:02:16.357
Apparently, it lets you
see things objectively
01:02:16.524 --> 01:02:18.609
and alleviate the trauma.
01:02:19.569 --> 01:02:20.737
I see.
01:02:24.157 --> 01:02:27.618
I heard it's the latest
treatment in America.
01:02:32.498 --> 01:02:36.377
Didn't we look like a
weird religious group?
01:02:36.919 --> 01:02:38.129
No...
01:02:40.089 --> 01:02:44.177
But do you think it really works?
01:02:44.677 --> 01:02:46.596
Well...
01:02:47.096 --> 01:02:48.681
I'm not sure.
01:02:51.142 --> 01:02:53.019
How about you, Mr. Maeda?
01:02:53.186 --> 01:02:55.772
Me? Well...
01:02:58.483 --> 01:03:02.361
Well, the girl who lost her boyfriend...
01:03:03.488 --> 01:03:05.823
It seems she's turning for the worse.
01:03:05.990 --> 01:03:07.825
Oh...
01:03:08.451 --> 01:03:12.497
You know, Ms. Shiraishi
always changes the plot.
01:03:12.663 --> 01:03:13.623
What?
01:03:13.790 --> 01:03:18.920
She talks about a different
ex-boyfriend or story every time.
01:03:19.086 --> 01:03:21.672
She once said the guy was a victim.
01:03:24.175 --> 01:03:28.554
So maybe she's gotten
better than any of us in a way.
01:03:33.351 --> 01:03:37.188
Ms. Aoyama, can I
believe your story is true?
01:03:46.364 --> 01:03:48.574
Grimes is coming to Japan.
01:03:48.741 --> 01:03:50.243
-Seriously?
-Yup.
01:03:50.409 --> 01:03:51.953
Only Tokyo, right?
01:03:52.119 --> 01:03:55.665
I'm not sure, but I hope
she will come to Osaka.
01:03:55.832 --> 01:03:58.793
It'll be tough to get tickets.
01:03:58.960 --> 01:04:00.753
I wanna go see her.
01:04:13.516 --> 01:04:14.976
-Hello?
-Where are you?
01:04:15.017 --> 01:04:16.727
Sorry but I'm almost there.
01:04:16.769 --> 01:04:18.646
I'm very sorry.
01:04:25.403 --> 01:04:26.821
I'm almost there!
01:04:26.904 --> 01:04:28.239
How are you?
01:04:36.122 --> 01:04:38.833
I'll be watching you.
01:04:41.586 --> 01:04:43.004
Why...?
01:05:11.824 --> 01:05:15.411
Hi monkey!
01:05:15.578 --> 01:05:17.288
Thank you!
01:05:20.833 --> 01:05:23.836
Cute!
01:05:28.132 --> 01:05:29.342
Hey!
01:05:31.928 --> 01:05:34.013
Bunny.
01:05:35.389 --> 01:05:37.767
Where are you going?
01:06:24.313 --> 01:06:25.690
You're back?
01:06:29.944 --> 01:06:31.237
What happened?
01:06:34.782 --> 01:06:37.034
What happened to you?
01:06:38.160 --> 01:06:39.954
Hold on.
01:07:54.653 --> 01:07:57.406
Is this all the cash you have?
01:07:59.450 --> 01:08:00.451
Yes.
01:08:15.758 --> 01:08:19.637
Then, sign at the bottom for all of these.
01:11:05.219 --> 01:11:06.470
Welcome.
01:11:06.845 --> 01:11:08.222
This way, please.
01:13:31.281 --> 01:13:35.828
Doctor, where am I?
01:13:37.788 --> 01:13:39.081
I can't see.
01:13:41.041 --> 01:13:42.793
Don't worry.
01:13:45.170 --> 01:13:48.465
Just, think about your new name.
01:14:43.353 --> 01:14:45.022
How does this look?
01:14:49.151 --> 01:14:52.571
Kuwahara, check this for her.
01:14:55.073 --> 01:14:58.744
Yes, it looks good to me. Thanks.
01:14:59.661 --> 01:15:00.537
Sure.
01:15:24.436 --> 01:15:25.521
See you tomorrow.
01:15:25.687 --> 01:15:27.439
See you.
01:15:31.902 --> 01:15:33.362
Bye.
01:17:49.373 --> 01:17:50.624
I'm back.
01:17:54.836 --> 01:17:56.004
Welcome back.
01:17:58.965 --> 01:18:00.759
The door is locked.
01:18:02.052 --> 01:18:05.555
Of course, otherwise it'd be broken into.
01:18:05.806 --> 01:18:08.225
I'm sweaty, so I wanna change.
01:18:09.017 --> 01:18:10.602
Hmm.
01:18:12.646 --> 01:18:13.730
What?
01:18:19.027 --> 01:18:21.363
-Let's eat.
-Dig in.
01:18:25.367 --> 01:18:27.577
-You cooked today?
-Yup.
01:18:31.415 --> 01:18:34.126
Hey, you have to try these.
01:18:38.213 --> 01:18:39.172
What's this?
01:18:40.090 --> 01:18:41.299
That's...
01:18:42.008 --> 01:18:43.927
-It's soft.
-Be careful.
01:18:44.094 --> 01:18:46.096
I bought it at a fish market.
01:18:48.306 --> 01:18:50.183
-It's good.
-Really?
01:18:50.392 --> 01:18:52.894
It just became open season.
01:18:53.061 --> 01:18:54.187
Oh, yeah?
01:18:54.187 --> 01:18:55.313
It's fresh.
01:18:57.441 --> 01:18:59.025
No wasabi, though?
01:18:59.192 --> 01:19:00.318
What?
01:19:02.154 --> 01:19:04.906
-Is there wasabi?
-I'm not sure.
01:19:08.827 --> 01:19:09.995
It's so yummy.
01:19:10.162 --> 01:19:11.246
I got it.
01:19:11.538 --> 01:19:14.791
Hey, did you get ice cream for dessert?
01:19:15.584 --> 01:19:16.460
I forgot.
01:19:16.626 --> 01:19:19.087
-What?
-I'll get it tomorrow.
01:19:19.337 --> 01:19:21.923
How can you think about ice cream
while eating sashimi?
01:19:22.090 --> 01:19:23.508
I always have room for it.
01:19:24.426 --> 01:19:26.553
That's not what I mean.
01:19:28.555 --> 01:19:30.015
Boo.
01:19:30.182 --> 01:19:31.516
Peek-a-boo?
01:19:32.517 --> 01:19:34.436
I totally forgot about it.
01:19:38.482 --> 01:19:40.442
I'll go get it after dinner.
01:19:40.776 --> 01:19:41.693
Really?
01:19:41.860 --> 01:19:43.737
Yeah, what do you want?
01:19:45.030 --> 01:19:46.531
I want Super Cup.
01:19:46.698 --> 01:19:49.326
-You really like it, huh?
-Yup.
01:19:50.660 --> 01:19:52.496
I love it.
01:19:54.206 --> 01:19:58.126
Are you trying to get Papico sherbet?
01:19:59.002 --> 01:20:02.964
It's fine. I can't decide
if I want chocolate.
01:20:03.131 --> 01:20:04.174
This one?
01:20:05.175 --> 01:20:07.469
That one or the crunchy one.
01:20:07.636 --> 01:20:09.971
Oh, well. I'll get both.
01:20:15.936 --> 01:20:17.813
Here is your change.
01:20:19.356 --> 01:20:20.857
Thank you.
01:20:24.694 --> 01:20:26.321
