Synopsis

Three sisters grow up on a chicken farm in a small town in Gifu, Japan. The oldest sister, Yukie Sawada, is engaged to be married, the middle sister, Sachiko works at a beauty salon and the youngest, Mayumi, is on the track team in high school.
Their happy, carefree lives are changed forever when Yukie’s ex-boyfriend Suzuki commits an atrocious crime with Mayumi as the tragic victim. Half-crazed and bent on revenge against the Sawada family, Suzuki mistakes Mayumi for Yukie and pours acid all over her face. Overwhelmed by physical and psychological trauma, Mayumi sinks deeper into depression and isolation, unresponsive to her sisters’ encouragement…
Meanwhile, chilling news of a serial murderer, who preys on the alumni of Mayumi’s high school, sends shockwaves through their small town...
