TITLE: Unforgettable (Japan)
DIRECTOR: Junki Tachibana
PRODUCER: Ryosuke Yamashita & Akiyoshi Ohkuma
DOP: Masaki Imanishi
Synopsis:
A story of two brothers.
The protagonist, Shinji, has led an unhappy life due to his criminal brother.
As his brother is about to be released from prison, Shinji is worried about how to deal with his brother in the future.
His fiancée, his mother who is trying to break off her relationship with his brother, and people who knew the two of them when they were children are all part of Shinji’s complicated environment.
As his life progresses, it becomes increasingly difficult for him to control the memories and thoughts that he wants to forget but cannot.
The bond with his brother that remains deep in his heart shakes Shinji passionately.
Will he break off his relationship with his brother, or will he take his brother’s hand?
A conflict without a clear answer runs through Shinji’s mind.
This is a story that makes you think about what it means to live with someone you love, and what happiness means to you.
It is a story that makes you think.
