Description

Description

An ordinary Japanese businessman named Ido returns home one day to find that his wife and son have been taken hostage by an escaped convict named Ogoro. The police explain to Ido that while Ogoro’s main demand is to see his own wife and son, his wife refuses the request. As the situation turns into a media circus, realising that the police are completely useless and scared for his family’s safety, Ido decides to take matters into his own hands and goes to beg Ogoro’s wife for help. However, when his plea is also rejected, a desperate Ido seizes Ogoro’s wife and son as a negotiation tool against Ogoro. Now there are two families being held hostage in two houses at the same time. What happens next is unthinkable…
