A dark psychological thriller about a father's obsessive search for his missing daughter, which unravels his illusions and drags him into a morass of corruption, addiction, and moral decay.
When Kanako, a model daughter and a brilliant student, disappears, her mother asks her ex-husband, a violent former policeman, to find her. As his investigation progresses, his idealized image of Kanako cracks: the girl hides a dark life that her father can not even imagine.
