I want to die.

Where is everyone?

[ Sunshine Club ]

Four cars crashed at this place in the two past years.

On this road.

The city took no precautions to prevent further accidents from happening.

Such accidents can't be prevented.

The city takes the responsibility.

It will have to pay the damages.

Well... How much will that be?

In our case 40 million yen each.

Don't take any notes.

-[ prefecture agrees the lapse ]-

With life insurance included 120 million yen for everybody.

You owe 50 million and you'll get 70 million.

I still don't get it.

If I die, they'll pay 70 million for me?

Yes.

That should solve your problem.

When will it be?

We'll leave on the next years 30. December.

We'll do it on the last day of the year.

Mr. Yashiro!

Is that you?

I'm late.

Thank you.

No problem.

- Should I take your luggage? - No, that's alright.

- This way. - Thank you.

We can leave.

I thought, there would be one other passenger.

Two days ago he was put into an asylum.

He's gonna stay there for life. Nobody will get to speak with him.

Excuse me.

Is this the Sunrise Tour to Okinawa?

Yes.

Oh. I nearly got on a wrong bus.

I'm sorry.

You are about to make the same mistake again.

- Isn't this the Sunshine Club? - It is.

Here's my membership card!

- Where did you get it? - My uncle gave it to me.

He won't be able to make it. He didn't want it to expire.

- Uncle? Mr. Nobuo Koizumi? - Yes.

Can't I go in his place?

- OK... Get on, please. - Thanks.

Let's go.

So few passengers?

I'd say "so many".

Thank you for taking part

on our New Year's Sunrise Trip.

My name is Megumi Fukuda, I'll be your tour leader.

If you have any questions don't hesistate asking me.

IKINAI

The US military base Kichiro.

It's huge.

What was the name of the plane again?

Ste... Yes, now I know, Stealth.

How old is your son?

Twelve.

Some 100 or 200 thousand won't cure him.

If you take another loan, you won't be able to repay it.

Do you know how many times you'd have to borrow money?

Don't you want to give up?

You have to stop it once, Mr. Kanda.

Come on!

Let's play something!

And what should that be?

How about shiritori - the word-chain game.

OK.

Take care of that, Ms. Fukuda.

I've never played it before.

Me neither.

There's plenty of time till the next stop.

So we can play shiritori.

Let's start with the syllable 'ri' from shiritori.

Please, you in the back.

Ri-su. (squirrel)

Here.

Su-ri. (pickpocket)

Rin-do-ba-gu. (Lindbergh)

Ku-ri. (chestnut)

Ri-ri. (lily)

This is silly. We're no kids anymore.

The looser will be punished. Five, four, three, two...

Ri-ka. (science)

Ka-ba. (hippo)

Can 'ba' be replaced by the syllable 'ha'?

Yes.

That's alright.

Ha-i-sha. (dentist)

Ja-shii. (palm)

Shi-ka. (deer)

Ka-ra-su. (crow)

A word beginning with 'su', Mr. Taguchi.

Su... Su... Su...

Su-ka-tan. (asshole)

That ends with 'n'.

Punishment! Punishment!

How could you end with 'n'.

Mr. Taguchi lost.

His punishment will be karaoke.

~ Poverty has broken us. ~

He can't even properly speak.

~ No, it was society ~ ~ who has broken us. ~

~ They have expelled us from this town ~

~ and we can only die beautifully. ~

~ We lived to the max, ~

~ we don't regret anything,

~ flowers won't be blooming for us, ~

~ we'll shrivel just like them... ~

The poison of the Ryukyu rattlesnake.

This rattlesnake can kill two or more people with its poison.

Its poison never runs dry.

- Do you bet on it or the cobra? - I bet on the cobra.

- I bet on the rattlesnake. - The rattlesnake.

Will you lend me your heat?

- Cobra! - Rattlesnake!

- Rattle...rattle...rattle... - Rattlesnake for me too!

Cobra!

500 yen on the cobra!

On the big snake.

- The cobru? - On the big snake.

Cobra!

This is great!

I bet on the rattlesnake.

Anybody else?

Everybody who bet on the cobra,

will hold his hand up like this, so we want have a mess.

Now, let's start with the cobra.

Today the cobra is very energetic. It's alert.

Your waiting has an end.

This is, as you know, a cobra.

You in the front rows be prepared for anything.

The cobra is hissing and lifting its head. But it has a weak spot.

When it blows up its neck like this, it can't see behind.

When it's looking forward, it can't see what's behind it.

When she's not paying attention and you do this...

This is Tama-udo-un.

We're in the Miagimui grove, which is 200 meter below the gate Shureimo.

This is the tomb of the second dynasty Shou.

Ryukyu's ruler Shoushi had it built in the year 1501,

to deposit here the remains of his father, king Shouen.

As you can see, the tomb is hewed into the stone

and is protecded from the wind by panelling boards.

There are three tombs here.

The middle tomb Shiruhirashi was used for deposit of bones before exculpation.

After that the queen's remains were put away into the east tomb,

while the west tomb was for the princes and princesses.

Together with the stone gate of the Sugen temple

these royal tombs are important relicts

of the golden age of the Ryukyu culture.

How much?

- Seven. - Seven...

I can never pay it back.

- My name is It�. - I'm Kanda.

Mr. Kanda?

Excuse me how much debts have you got? I got 5, that means 50 million.

- Hmm. I got four. - Ah, four.

I have six kids. I was married four times.

The child from my first marriage is going to high school this year.

Alimony and education expenses are terribly high.

Excuse me.

Hello... is this Juta?

Yes. I'm at Okinawa.

How you doing?

Good... Everything alright.

It's gonna get better soon.

I'll bring you a present.

See you.

You got involved with a prostitute.

Yes, but I didn't come.

You shouldn't speak like that.

You're raising youth. What's in your head anyway?

Let's move on.

Move it!

They'll hear you.

They don't hear much in their age.

Thanks.

We're going to the Himeyuri pagoda, therefore...

Could you give me a hand?

I can't make origami.

- Ms. Fukuda! - Yes?

Where's Mr. Kimura?

Mr. Kimura? Isn't he here?

I've got it over 20 years now.

- That's a lot. - And still working.

It's as good as new. You're taking good care of it.

It's a good gadget.

A little bit heavy, but it can take something.

It was used by reporters during the Vietnam war.

You're impossible.

At least open the window when you're smoking.

Don't you know how to behave?

Not much.

To hell. Let's settle it outside.

Calm down. I'll stop smoking.

You don't smoke?

Of course not.

No wonder you have such nice teeth. Were you living on Haway?

What?

Say "Haway". Nice teeth...

- Are you kidding me? - Forget it.

Haway means nice teeth, funny, isn't it?

- A little bit closer? - A bit closer, please.

- And you too, ok? - Now it's fine.

Yes, like this.

Ready? Smile.

Beeing a bus driver, why are you going sightseeing with us?

- Does it annoy you? - No, not at all.

Wait!

Please, take a seat.

Please!

Now pay for it!

Come on, old-timer, don't be like that!

Stop bothering me! Why don't you shut up?

Don't be getting angry. It's bad for your health.

- Stop smoking in front of me. - Excuse me.

Can I offer you one?

Good? Are you ready?

Cheese.

Miss, how much do you have?

Twenty.

I see! I got five...

I was four times married and have six children.

The oldest is going to high school this year.

Alimony and education expenses... all that is pretty expensive.

Mr. It�, please!

- She's another case. - Another?

I'll explain later.

She has to die with us.

I feel sorry for her.

So we'll cancel the plan?

We can't.

- Paying the insurance wasn't easy. - I was paying for a year and a half.

How about asking her to get off and never talk about it?

That wouldn't work.

She looks like a nice girl.

Are you nuts? The press mustn't find out.

Such an accident will get them wild.

But this will be a murder.

I don't want somebody innocent to die with me.

- She's coming. - Hold her back for a while.

Yes.

Do you want to go back?

Do you want to live through the hell day by day again?

Imagine you don't know anything about the whole plan or the accident.

When she got on the bus and became a participant on the accident,

it was fate.

Yes, it's her fate.

When somebody like her dies with us,

nobody will suspect it was a insurance fraud.

That's true.

Listen. We'll go on with the yourney as planned.

Be careful not to to wake any suspicion in her.

Act normally. That's all.

Excuse me coming late.

Here, take one.

T...thanks.

Take one. Here!

Please!

Here!

Take one!

Please!

Here!

Please!

Here!

Please!

Please!

A plane crashed?

Terrible, isn't it?

But not the accident. More the fact that two survived.

[ Two miraculously saved ]

Our hotel is called Kariyushi... What does it mean?

Probably the name of the place.

Tile stone.

Pumice (Kariyushi).

It's supposed to bring luck.

I refuse to eat this.

I want to taste french cuisine before I die.

'Ri' as in furansu rj�-ri (french cuisine).

It's 'ri'.

Ri-shi. (attack)

Shi-ka. (deer)

Ka-ka-to. (heel)

Ton-bo. (dragonfly)

- These are Okinawa mandarins. - Okinawa mandarins?

- They grow only here, they're tiny. - Like the Ponkan ones?

- I don't know. Maybe a little smaller. - If you want to see them, they're there.

You mean the juice?

Mr. Nose, be careful what you say.

I want to have french food for dinner.

I'll think about it.

Mr. Ozawa, what...

I don't want, any quarerels about the money.

What? A parting-letter from an accident victim?

Mr. Noguchi, why are you taking this along?

You're right, it's quite odd.

What's your problem, Mr. Kimura?

The thought of me drifting on the surface scares me.

I'm scared, terribly scared.

Mr. Yashiro, what is this?

- Betting vouchers. - I can see that.

- Is there anything bad about it? - What if you'll win?

Beware the Indians and the rattlesnakes.

On your left side you can see golden cactuses.

They're called Golden shachi.

Don't they look like pieces of gold?

Take a look to your right, please.

Allow me to introduce you to a charming lady.

She's the winner of all the cactus beauty contests.

This beauty with orange and pink blossoms is bana uchiwa.

But she's got thorns. Yes, beautiful women are always dangerous.

The slope on the left is the domain of medicinal cactuses.

The juice from the leaves helps healing burns and skin injuries.

Their name is aloe, but they're called "natural doctors".

On the left you can see flowers which look like octopuses.

In Japanese they re called tako-no-ki, octopus-trees.

Their fruits look like pineapples.

However they're too fibrous and therefore undigestible.

It's a pity.

And that thig, that looks like a telegraph pole,

that's a palm tree.

When a palm tree like others...

Here it is.

The cliff is 30 to 40 meters deep.

That's got to hurt.

Hurt might not be the right word.

How does it hurt?

50 times more than kicking your pinkie to a closet.

- More than a needle under the fingernail? - 32 times more.

- More than a needle in the eye? - 28 times more.

- More than a razor-blade in the gum? - 19 times more.

The Drunken Tree. It's called like this because,

it looks like an old pot-bellied codger.

Want a smoke?

I quit smoking.

Since when?

It's five days.

Great. I've tried it myself, but I could only endure it for three days.

I'm not much better. My record is five days.

You want beat that record anymore.

Don't you want one?

No, I quit.

I'll try it too.

When will we arive at the Himeyuri pagoda?

- Isn't it this? - This is the Himeyuri park.

We changed the schedule. We'll arive there tomorrow.

Okay.

I'll give you keys for your rooms.

- Mr. Ozawa and Mr. Noguchi. - Yes.

Nr. 301. We all are on the third floor.

- What? I'm with you? - Don't get angry.

Mr. Kanda and Mr. Mochizuki nr. 302.

It works.

Magnetism advances the healing powers of the human body.

So the magnetism in this coin does your body very well.

It cures my stiff shoulder.

We've got the whole spa for ourselves?

There are not many guests here today. We can take a nice bath.

We'll wash away the dirt of our lifes.

Ms. Fukuda, won't you go to the spa?

Not now. I'll go later.

What are you crocheting?

Socks. I've got one so far. I have to do the other today.

For the driver?

What are you saying?!

It's l...love.

Like in that film.

How much debts have ou got?

- Th...th... - Thirty million.

I got them in a square.

What?

Four. Like four corners.

I got twice so much. Eight.

- And I five. - Realy? And you?

- Seven. - And you two?

One.

You mean hundred million?

One million yen.

You can easily pay that off.

I got six months to live.

It's said we earn about 300 million yen in our life.

I haven't even earned twenty.

I just don't want to wait for death. It gives me the creeps.

I even haven't done anything good in my life.

Your illness can't be cured? Even if it'd cost a lot of money?

Well. Then we'll die together.

All participants of this trip are actualy brothers now.

- Come on, dance! - Quiet, mister!

- Strip off! - Quiet!

- Why are you leaving? - Mister!

~ We're alive, all of us. ~

~ We're singing, because we're alive. ~

~ We're alive, all of us. ~

~ We feel grief, so we're alive. ~

~ Lift your hand to the sun. ~

~ You can see the red blood ~ ~ flowing in the veins. ~

You're men, ain't you. What the hell are you doing?

My name is Harufutei Ryuhsho. I'm the last of this school.

What happens, when you eat flour instead of noodles?

You have to dust your hands. That's all.

A killing joke!

I'll lift off in the air.

- That's all. - You didn't lift off at all.

I'll perform a magical trick.

They float! They float!

He's pushing them up.

Thank you.

I used to go to night clubs in Ginza three times a week.

After you're doing it for three years, it starts to feel normal.

We knew the crisis would come, but we weren't doing anything about it.

It was a great era.

A company, what is it anyway?

Good evening. Say hello, Charlie.

Good evening everybody.

How long are you in Japan, Charlie?

Well it's been... about three years.

He's moving his lips.

The flowers riddle.

Where will I be in hundred years? Under the flowers.

That was quite primitive. Do you know any other riddle?

- I do. About vegetable. - Let's hear it.

Which vegetable grows in the sea? Of course the sea cucumber! Thanks.

I'll show you an elephant.

~ Elephant, elephant, you got a big nose. ~

~ That's because my dad had a big nose too. ~

Jasugi!

Damn!

You are severe to yourself and to others.

But you're kind to the weak ones.

You're saying only the good things. What was he in the past life?

In the past life?

You don't see it?

In the past life he was...

he was...

an elephant.

An elephant?

You bastards!

Can you foretell my fate too?

You're a curious, very go-ahead person.

- A student? - Yes.

You'll be a kindergarten teacher or a health visitor.

Realy? I've always wanted to be a kindergarten teacher.

This year is bad for you. But the next will be better.

This year ends tomorrow. So I have to live through tomorrow.

Such an insolence!

I'm sorry. It was my fault.

I was arrogant.

Let's have a drink. I'm buying.

Excuse me.

Is that enough?

Thanks.

Wait, I want to tell you something. The fortune-teller was right.

What?

I'm sorry. I mean only in my case.

~ You can see the red blood ~ ~ flowing in the veins. ~

~ Even the dragonflies, frogs and bees... ~

This seems to be the only song she knows.

~ We're alive, we're friends... ~

- Now it's elephant man's turn. - Won't you stop?!

Now!

Now!

Now!

- You cheated. - No, I wasn't.

Well, it's my last opportunity. Why should I give it up.

- I won! I won! - You cheated.

I wasn't.

Don't be angry. I'm sorry.

Excuse the little hold-up. Here comes Ms. Juma.

Finaly!

This realy is something!

- You cheated! - What are you saying?!

- I've won after all! - It wasn't fair! Not a bit.

Stop it, Mr. Kimura.

320 thousand?

Let's see your credit card or your driving licence. You're boozing for quite a while now.

Having fun without paying? You won't get away with that.

You have to pay, understand?

Are you alright?

Are you alright?

Not much.

Thanks.

It's...

What is it? Are you angry?

Happy enging, happy everybody.

What ending?

What happened?

I got lost.

Let's go back together.

What do you say? Is it gona be alright?

Although I'm...

Even now, old-timer?

Don't call me old-timer.

Your face...

Do you realize the situation you're in?

My fault.

I invited them, to go with me.

It's unforgivable.

Here you are! What's up?

Where were you?

What is it with you?

I...

I... got lost...

I was tired.

They helped me.

What are you doing?

Are you alright?

Does it matter... what we do?

We'll die tomorrow anyway.

So let's at least enjoy our last night.

What have I done? Let me go away.

I won't tell anything to anybody.

I promise, so let me go.

I'm sorry but I can't.

Why?

Do you want to kill me?

It'll be an accident.

But it'll be suicide.

Why do you want to die? Isn't it better to live?

Life isn't so bad.

After all everybody seems to be so cheerful.

Wouldn't it be better to live?

Why should you die?

It's madness!

They're cheerful, because they know, they'll die tomorrow.

I don't believe that.

Are you glad, you're alive?

For somebody it's painful.

But some day even they will...

Some day... When is that gona be?

I don't know. That's why we keep on living.

Have you ever thought about life?

Yes, I did.

Have you ever thought about what it means to live?

Why to live?

What sense doese ti make?

Not why we live, but what it is.

Do you know what it is just to exist?

Mr. Aragaki.

Mr. Kimura says he's leaving.

Keep an eye on her for a while.

I still want to accomplish lots of things. Don't you have such a dream?

The girl...

I loved betrayed me.

Instead of happy memories I've only got grief.

I was disgusted with everything.

I wanted to take a revenge on her.

I'm disgusted with myself and I can't see a solution.

The fact that you think such things... The fact that you're on this trip...

that is bad.

Or rather silly.

I'm glad I met you and the others.

It would've been beautiful memories.

But if we die, everithing will vanish, even memories.

Let's have happy memories of this trip.

Yes, let it be that way.

Call it off. It's ridiculous. Call it off. Go back home.

Even if we call it off, we don't have homes to go back to.

Go back to your rooms.

Where is she?

In the bus.

What happened to her?

Hey!

She's just asleep.

I didn't want her to cause any disorder, so I anaesthetized her.

If you'd like, I've got pills for everybody.

Dying is easier when you're asleep.

Who will win this year's New Year's Eve music contest?

I root for the male team.

Up to this year the women won 24 times, the men 23 times.

No ensemble hasn't won three times in a row.

Apparently we won't see this year's contest.

Excuse me... toilet...

I need to go to the toilet.

You have to hold it.

Let him go!

Let him go!

I'm off!

When will you be having pills?

I'll get them at noon.

- Something wrong? - No.

We don't see a tour bus around too often.

One of the passengers got sick.

I see!

Have you seen this man?

No.

He's a burglar on the run.

I'll take a look inside.

Police.

Yes...

Hello!

Be careful.

Thanks.

Let's go.

Turn 06, nr. 140001.

Turn 06, nr. 140001.

Damn, it didn't work out!

- You? - Nothing!

Turn 50, nr. 163195. Turn 50, nr. 163195.

Second prize, 10 million yen. Turn 56, nr. 163100.

Open the door.

What're we gona do?

This is bad.

Pick him up!

Pick him up!

Faster!

Careful!

We've got to get away.

Hurry!

He's a burglar on the run.

Hey, are you alright?

My sweet little...

What? Hey... Hey! What?

You mean this?

He's dead...

To die in a place like this and furthermore this way!

Stupid!

Excuse me.

Ms. Koizumi!

You haven't eaten anything since the morning.

Take this.

I'm sorry.

It's time to go.

Excuse me... look.

[ We'll live! ]

Do you wana die right now?

One more trick and I'll kill you.

Mr. Yashiro, we're almost there.

Take this!

It's better when you'll sleep.

Don't take it.

I don't want it.

Mr. Yashiro!

Are you sick?

Pills? Which one?

I've dropped the last one.

Hey! Stop the bus!

He's got an attack.

He'll be fine in a while.

Stop!

That's not possible.

- Get over it! - Don't fall asleep!

Open your eyes.

- Shouldn't we make him talk? - Mr. Yashiro, can you hear me?

Mr. Yashiro!

This isn't helping. We have to make him talk.

Shiritori.

We'll play shiritori.

'Ri' from shiritori. It's 'ri'. 'Ri'.

Rin-go. (apple) Mr. Yashiro, 'go'.

It's 'go'.

'Go'!

Mr. Yashiro, Mr. Yashiro, 'go'.

Go-ri-la.

Lap-pa. (pipe) It's 'pa'.

'Ha' is also possible. But there mustn't be 'n' at the end.

Mr. Yashiro, wake up, Mr. Yashiro...

- A-ka-chan. (baby) - You're pregnant, aren't you?

You have to hold on. You can't die!

Yes!

I'll be back soon.

Your dady's coming back.

You're all fools!
