Dear Doctor
Directed by Miwa Nishikawa
Produced by Bandai Visual, Denner Systems
A morally complex drama about reputation, hypocrisy, and the gap between public virtue and private shame in a small rural community.
Osamu Ino is a great doctor who is beloved in his rural village. His knowledge and dedication make an equally strong impression on his reluctant medical intern, Keisuke Soma. But, Soma and the villagers reconsider their opinion when they learn about a shameful incident from Dr. Ino's past. Now the once-respected doctor must account for his past actions.
