Lullaby of the Earth.

Hello.

Okay?

What a beautiful sound.

Thank you.

pilgrim.

Mt. Ishizuchi, Shikoku, 1932.

Grandma

Grandma.

Sleeping?

Grandma?

What's wrong?

Answer me?

Grandma!

Grandma.

Why you gone?

Why?

Rin, grandma have to go

sooner than later.

Human's gonna die.

Do not upset when the day comes.

Rin.

Bear that in mind.

Rin, after grandma died,

you gotta be good.

If you are nice,

poeple will treat you nice.

However,

You don't need to be submissive.

Be just the way you are.

Everything will be fine.

Grandma!

I won't get fooled by anybody

beaten by anybody

will I, grandma?

Rin.

Good girl.

Today's your turn to carry water?
- yup.

How's your grandma?
Haven't seen her last 4-5 days.

She's fine.

Then tell her let's go get
some nameko this afternoon.

No she won't.

Is she sick or something?

She is fine.

Really?

She's fine.

Grandma, it's a robe for pilgrimage.

Please, wear it.

Do me a favor, please

I'll comb your hair

clean your face

I'll make a grave for you.

Where you want to be?

By grandpa's side in the mountain?
Or in the backyard here?

Let me wipe you.

Grandma!

Grandma.

What you doing here!

What's going on here, Rin?

Don't touch her!

Rin, what wrong with you?

She's my grandma
Never let you take her away.

Are you out of your mind?

- Stupid!
- Stop it!

Get out of here!

Bustard.

Bustard!

Throw her in the barn.

Bind her against the piller.

Bind her tight.

You crazy Rin.

Rin! you hide dead grandma at home

dreadful girl.

You are monster.

Suspend her on a persimmon tree.

Stop it.

Rin, think about what you did.

Rin.

Rin.

Grandma?

Grandma are you?

Rin, you are a good girl.

Don't cry.

Keep your chin up.

Grandma, don't you go to the temple?

People are doing your funeral

ha, I don't

I'll be by your side, always.

Rin, don't trust others.

You can think others are all ogres.

You understand? Rin.

Grandma!

Where are you?

Where you now?

Grandma!

Hey, Rin.

She's sleeping, not even crying.

Bold girl.

It's grandma's fault
She'd love her too much.

Spoiled her.

Bad attitude all the time.

She's an orphan. Grandma adopted her.

Who the parents
gave birth to a brat like this?

Grandma would lie
she's a child of high lineage.

What a noble brat!

You are Rin?

Who're you?

I'm from outside, not this mountain.
Please relax.

Can I talk to you?

I want to be alone
don't wanna talk to anybody.

My name is Sakichi

coming from a vilage down south.

I know you are lonely
you are missing grandma.

You know grandma?

I do. She's a good folk.

Not everyone can adopt other's child.

Rin, you can read and write?
Grandma taught you, right?

You are a smart girl
even without going to school.

I don't know letters.
Can't do writing.

Smells good, what is this soup?

Rabbit soup.

Looks good, can I have some?

I'm hungry.

You can eat with me.

Rin, how old are you?

Thirteen.

Still young.

Delicious! you hunt rabbit a lot?

3 in a day at least

I trap them
still hide eight of them in the mountan.

Excellent. Okay, let me buy them all.

The fur brings you good money.

No money needed if you buy

I'll pay.

No I don't need that
Instead...

You want matches?

Take as many as you want.

Have you ever had fish?

Fish?

Raw sashimi.

No.

Do you wanna eat?
Everyday, like a girl in a rich family.

Everyday?

Yes, everyday!

How about rice with some wheat?

But how can I?

As I tell you, leave the mountain,
come to the islands as a worker.

You can eat them everyday.

Mister, what do you want from me?

Grandma told me many times
bad guys come to a poor family

to buy a girl.

Such guys are sweet and kind
don't look like bad at all.

Do I look like that?

Must be working to
death in a far island?

I don't want island, fish, or rice.

I won't go, ever.

Good morning.

Where you stay last night?

In the temple.

Going to mountain again?

Is it fun playing there all day?

What are you eating there?

There's bunch. Vine, akebia

mountain yam, chestnut.

Be careful for wildfire.

I don't use fire.

Village people would come and catch me.

Did you think about that again?

Going to an island to get a job?

I fell asleep.

It's all up to you of course.

You are a smart girl, Rin.

I see you can live by yourself.

But, if you go to an island

you earn 30 yen.

You can make grandma's grave.

Grandma's grave?

Yes, descent grave.

Working there is easy.

You can come back soon.

That's something you can do
for grandma.

Once you are born
do something for others.

That's the way we all live.

When can I come back?

In summer holiday, you come back.

Take care of grandma's grave.

You can be beautiful

wearing pretty clothe
looking nice.

I don't care grave.

Grandma isn't there.

She's by my side, always.

Then, it would be same
wherever you live.

It's okay to live freely
in the mountan.

But what do you do in the future?

Go to an island.

That's far away.

No, you leave morning,
arrive before sunset.

It's Island Mitarai
beautiful place.

The sea, big and blue.

Sea?

The sea...

There are many tiny islands
the one you go to is the most scenic.

A man should live by the sea
at least once in a lifetime.

Life in the tiny mountain like this
makes you twisted.

Blue sea?

Big sea?

Yes, big blue sea
Why don't you see once?

It will blow your sorrow
make you feel relieved

I promise.

Mister

I'll go.

Go to the sea.

I wanted to see the sea
for a very long time.

Yes, I'll go to the sea.

Mister, this is the sea?

Yes, it is the sea.

Big isn't it?

Blue and beautiful, right?

Mister, I love the sea.

Mister, is that the island
we are going to?

No, it is much further.

It can't be seen from here.

We are going there by ship

ha, you are timid, Rin.

Don't be scared by the sound like that
life in the island will be tough.

Mitarai Island, Seto Inland Sea.

Rin.

Rin.

Can't you hear?

Deaf!

What a girl she is.

Sakichi brought a difficult one.

She didn't eat anything for two days
Just keep sitting silently.

Doesn't talk to anybody
no matter whom.

Do you leave her that way
without punishment?

She's stubborn.

Mistreating would make matters worse.

Treat her modest and kind
We need patience.

Rin.

Take a bath and change your clothes.

Here you go clean clothes.

Come on.

Bathing.

Ouch.

What you doing to mother?

What a brat.

Change the clothes.

What you doing to me?

Idiot

leave me!

Stop it.

If you touch me,
I won't forgive you.

What a kid.

I haven't seen a girl like you.

Way to go.

Leave her alone.

Horseshit.

Don't forget this.

- She hit my back, I can't work.
- She didn't take our kindness.

-Rin is really stubborn.

- She's from mountain.
- Stubborn like mountain rock.

-A rock doesn't have to eat food.

Juggling isn't it?

Kind of

I have one too.

My grandma was doing much better.

Grandma and I would played it together.

Mine has pieces of shells in it
from the beach.

Shells?

You hear this? The sound of the shells.

Do you want it?

I give this all to you.

All of them?

Who are you?

I'm Asa
Working as a shop clerk in the island.

Are you friend of mine?

Friend?

I see people either friend or enemy.

This house is full of my enemy.

That's why you don't eat at all?

Yes.

But it's no good hurting
your body that way.

Look at me.

My foot is alredy
crippled when I was born.

But working hard, people nice to me
and life gets easier.

You are healthy
You can go home soon if you work hard.

Or your debt will be getting bigger
with interest or food payment

you're gonna be stuck.

I didn't know that.

If you don't like here
just eat and work hard.

That's the way out.

I see.

You look nice.

You'll have a good luck
Be patient

I'll eat.

I won't be here for long

I'll eat, eat and work.

Rin, fasten it tighter.

Too tight.

Rin, help make-up my neck.

Come on.

Rin, bought my cigarette?

Do it better.

- Hi mister, why don't you come up
Have good time?

Excuse me mister, come drop by please?

Rin.

Hey.

What are you doing, idiot.

Are you blind, kid?

Sir, please forgive her.

Forget about it and
let's have a good time.

Here you go sir
Why don't you have a ball up there?

Rin, good job pouring water to him
Keep going.

Rin, need help here.

Rin, come push him up.

Rin, bring sake, be quick.

You are really persistent.

That's why you like me?

Thank you.

Hey, you already know a man?

Why don't you drink with me?

What are you doing to me?

Bring me water!

Gime me sake.

Sir, she is only a little girl
doesn't know anything at all.

Don't do that to her.

She doesn't know a man?

Interesting

I'll make her a woman.

What is the bucket for?

I bring water for you.

Drink.

Rin!

What the hell you doing, punk?

I can't put up with it anymore.

You must not do that to the guests.

Does it hurt?

Apologize if it does.

Say "it will never happen".

Swear "I'll work hard as ever".

Stop, she's only a girl
What would you do if she dies.

There should be better ways
to change her mind.

She is a hell stubborn
Helpless.

A hardheaded from mountain.

Hey

I've got a nice idea.

Let her be used to our business.

She'll be an adult and
change her mind.

Yes, she will.

Rin.

Why don't you try the boat?

Are you kidding?

What would happen if she is on the boat?

She would upset guests or
run away to the other boats.

But I think she will be a good fit.

She's athletic.

Hell of a muscle.

Madam.

Master.

What is the boat?

I've told you many time.

Call me father
Not master.

Call her mother.

Master, please tell me
What is the boat you talk about?

Master!

Well.. okay.

The boat is going offshore
with the sisters here on board.

To make business with men on the sea.

Can I be a rower for the boat?

Really?

I was the rower.

But it became hard since
I got my heart sick two years ago.

I used to be the best back in the days.

Master, let me row the boat.

Please.

Let me row the boat.

Master!

Not master. Father
Call me father!

Paper, soap.

That's it?

Do you think I am allowed to
make side trip on my way home?

Female is not supposed to go out alone.

You are still a girl.

Come back early
Nobody would get mad.

Okay.

That's good.

Don't be too late.

Alright?

Get off.

Get off from here.

What?

Is this your boat?

Get off

I told you

I'm Rin.

Why don't you tell your name?

You can row the boat, can't you?

Can you teach me?

Where do you live?

Me?

I'm from lyo
adopted to this island.

What part of the island do you live?

In a fisherman's inn on the waterfront.

I want to learn rowing.

Teach me? Please?

Got to be relaxed.

Do not try too hard.

You don't get it at all.

I already got the gist.

Just need a little time

to do it right.

Will be doing better pretty soon.

Rin, ready?

-Rin, do your best.

-Don't get behind.

- Rin, we're getting
behind the other boats.

-Come on, get faster.

Try not to roll the boat
or sisters would fall into the sea.

-Yes.

-We are heading for the business.

-Treat with care.

Someday you might think
this is good experience.

Get married with a good fisherman.

Go offshore with him
for fishing everyday.

Here they come.

The rower is a woman.

Never seen a female rower.

Arrived
Let's get out, quick.

Good deal for you, take it
Mister, please.

How much?

Two yens fifty sens.

Too much. I can afford only two.

Give her 50 sens more, mister.

You take it or leave it.

How about me?
I'm okay with two yens, mister?

How hot are you? Show me your face.
- Here you go.

My god, grandma?

Not that much
Take what you have in hand.

Good, come up here.

Mister, how about the other cutie?

-Me? Don't you take me?

She's nice too
Take a close look.

-Mister, I'll hustle tonight.

Isn't there any guy who takes me?

If you were five years younger.

Shut up your nice mouth.

Rin, why are you doing rower?

I like the sea
I like the boat.

It's fun. I can't quit.

But rowing is hard for a woman

I'm worrying your body.

What? I don't care

I can compete with men

I'll kept the secret

so tell me honestly.

You don't like here.

You want to back to mountain
don't you?

No, I want to be a real rower
That's it.

Weather like this dries up brothel.

Fishermen should be
drinking on the boat.

Can't make business tonight.

Mother, shall we do housework tonight?

We can make big tonight.

There's no other boats
So will be no rivals.

You sisters can make easy business.

Who rows the boat?

I do

I don't care rain this little.

The boat will be capsized
Eeverybody is thrown into the sea.

Will be alright
I am well trained.

Big mouth
You are gonna kill us.

What happened?

Father
Rin gets crazy.

Why?

Let's go offshore
Let me row the boat.

It's raining hard
Are you confident?

It will be okay
once we are out to the sea.

Sisters can stay fisherman's boat.

What about the boat?

I'll row it back.

I got it.

Change your clothes.

Get dressed!

In this hard raining.

How dare the kid does this.

You two stay safe.

Rin, you sure alright?

Go slowly
Don't let sisters fall into the sea.

Master, I'll go.

Good. I trust you.

Row with care.

Carefully.

Hey, great to see you come.

Come up
Ladder!

I'll give you three yens
It's reward.

Even five yens.

Thanks mister.

- We are arrived, sisters.
- Good job

-hold me.

We'll stay over night.

You too come up

I'm not like sisters.

Doesn't matter
Have a drink and get rest.

No, please I cannot do that
I'll do any other things.

So no thanks, sorry.

Are you crying?

We won't do anything to a kid like you.

Here you go money

10 yens. Take it.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You are excellent!

You are born to do this business.

I wish I could show you
Rin's outing last night.

In that hard rain

yoisho, yoisho.

Shout and row the boat
like nothing else matters.

Really, Rin?

With this little hands.

You've done well.

Rin is our prospect.

We're promising as
long as Rin is with us.

Our tresure.

She's a bargain.

You'll be the best madam in the island.

Rin, take it.

It's a kimono
reward for your work.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

What happens to her?

Praise doesn't make her happy?

She is just shy.

She's only thirteen.

Alright, she's still a kid.

Rin, snitching food?

What?

I'm not doing anything.

Food is still on your lip.

Wipe it.

No such thing.

What are you doing?

Chasing out fleas.

You are still a kid, Rin.

What happened to this rice?

Did Rin put wrong amount
of water into it?

Who can eat rice cooked this hard?

Rin, come here.

Rin, be quick.

What?

You cooked the rice without
enough water, didn't you?

Who could cook rice without water?

Watch your mouth.

You bullshits.

Surprised, she got a huge mouth.

You are getting used to here?

You would get beaten
If you badmouthe to Miss. Rin.

She is so masuculine

I remember.

She won't let you on the boat.

We should be careful.

Whatever you say.

Miss Rin is the best
female rower in Japan.

Scary, scary.

Whiners will be punished.

Yes, we will.

Rin?

You bustards.

You don't have to
fucking eat.

Die you all bastards.

Mother, again Rin is.

Father!

Stop it.

Do you lost your mind, Rin?

I thought you are settling
but agian?

Rin, how could you?

What happend to you?

She is getting arrogant
You flattered her too much.

Rin.

What's wrong with you lately?

I don't get it.

You are yawning all the time
Don't work at all.

Is that's who you really are?

What happens?
Tell me your story

I'm all ears.

Where you go?

Leave her alone.
- But.

This is small island
Nowhere to go.

Soon she'll be back.

Wake up, clear the mess.

Got it.

Grandma.

Grandma.

What can I do?

Tell me?

Grandma

I'm scary, grandma.

Grandma, say something.

What happened?

Well...

Your clothes got dirty.

Come to my home.

Get dressed well before you go.

You can't even walk this way.

But.

I don't mind.

My home is right there.

Come with me

I'm alone today.

So, don't worry.

Miss.

Please tell me

I don't know anything.

I don't know what to do

I'm confused, very sad.

Is this the very first time?

Yes.

When you back home.

Ask your mother about it.

In my home.

Nobody is there.

I can't tell anybody about it.

I really can't.

Then, I'm going to tell you.

There's no shame.

Every woman has this experience.

I hate woman.

I don't want to be a woman.

I want to be a child for good.

Get your body clean.

Change clothes.

No.

I don't like woman.

Don't want to be woman.

Rin.

Go on a little errand, please

I gotta pay the carpenter
for fixing the boat.

What you doing?

Don't even answer?

It's pity
Let the fish go.

They look suffering
I told you let them go.

They are living too
Don't be mean.

Look.

It's better in the net
They don't get hurt.

Stupid.

What would you feel
if you netted like this?

I'm human, not fish.

We are all living.

Silly.

Am I silly?

Do you really think I'm silly?

Then I give it to you
Does it make you happy?

No thanks
I didn't say I wanted.

Take it. Try some.

No I don't.

Back them to the sea.

Don't be ridiculous
I just got them on the offshore.

Does fishing them make you proud?
Are you a man?

If you are a man
throw them into the sea.

Can you do that?

Is this what you want?
Feeling better?

To tell you the truth.

I identified myself with the fish.

What do you mean?

I'm working in the brothel
on the waterfront

I'm an indentured servant

I'm stuck in the net as they are.

However.

However, I won't be a whore

I'll get out of the island.

Like the fish you just released.

So what? that's none of my business

I'm feeling better now.

By telling you honestly.

It's refreshing.

What?

Am I dirty?

Are you scared?

Why are you wearing stuff like this?
Be like woman.

I would be more like woman
If we are together.

Rin, come with me.

It's not something you need to hide.

It's happy thing.

Let's have a celebration today.

Get dressed for it.

Set your hair.

Try make-up.

You will be looking good, Rin.

I know a girl like you
being shy about it.

But you can't hide it forever.

It's good, really.

We are waiting for you being a woman.

We really are.

You made it. You are now an adult.

I don't know what you are talking about.

Come on.

You were wearing clothes
we've never seen.

We wonder who gave it to you.

Stop pretending anymore.

This is the clothes I gave you
A woman delivred this morning.

It still has blood taint on it.

That tells what happend
Nothing to hide.

I don't know.

Idon't know this clothes.

What are you looking at?

Don't you hear I say I don't know?

Stupid!

I've never seen a girl like you.

Don't be so adamant

I made investment to bring you
You owe me

I'm not a woman.

So I won't take customer.

You are just a servant in a brothel.

Don't expect to be treated
like innocent girl

I won't help if you get punished

I don't care. As you like.

How dare you say.

Stop, please stop.

Rin.

Rin.

Hey, eat this.

This fish is good
Try some.

Stop, leave her alone.

Rin, take a look.

This is what a man and a woman
are supposed to do.

What are you doing, stupid.

Your face, what happened?

Scarier than ghost.

Fron now on, I will be a real monster.

Be careful not to be fooled.

You are punished, aren't you?

I feel your pain.

Pain?
I just want to die.

Cheer up

I'll get out of the island too
to work in quarry

quarry?

I need money to buy a big boat.

Go away wherever you want
Big rocks will fall onto you.

What?
You get pissed already?

Today is the last day I meet you.

So I come here to
let you have me as you like.

Why?

You are a man, right?

Do whatever you want to me.

I don't need money

I sleep with you for free.

Isn't it good?
Isn't it bargain?

Stop.

Don't be close.

You are wierd

I'm determined to be
much dirtier later.

Stupid.

Stupid.

You are

an obnoxious

girl.

Why are you doing this?

Stop it, idiot.

It's alright, alright!

Stupid.

Stupid.

Rin.

What the hell are you doing?

It's my hair.

My business.

And mine alone.

Help, Rin gets upset.

Because it's hot

it's more comfortable
when I get sweat.

I don't know what to do.

Rin is extraordinary.

Whatever you say is useless
Leave her alone

I'm losing you, Rin.

Rin.

What to do with Rin?

Since being a whore
she doesn't take a bath at all.

Dirty all the time.

Dressing untidily
like a moron.

She's even cut hair.

Whatever.

However dirty
she's the youngest by wide margin.

So far so good
She's very popular.

She's our No. 1.

But, she looks like nun.

Leave it.

You know it's business
Whatever gets attention is good.

Sales increase.

Master

I will row the boat tonight too.

You don't have to.

Customers come to see you here.

Why go to the sea?

Master

I don't want anybody but me
to row the boad.

If you take the oar away from me
You'll see something happens.

You never know what I will do.

I want to make it clear.

Really, she is strange.

Everyone hates the boat usually.

Money will be half of the land
It makes you really tired.

Older ladies go to the sea
since they can't get customer here.

Whatever
Nobody can't stop her anyway.

The best female rower in Japan?

I appreciate Miss Rin's greatness.

Arrived, Let's go business.

Hey misters, could you
buy pretty sisters?

I take one, come up

I'm sold, Rin

three yens, I'm three fifty.

No haggle.

Be careful.

Come up quickly.

Are you man?

Woman? Interesting.

Are you Rin in the brothel?

I like you. Come up

I have customers waiting in the brothel.

Have no time to stay here
Maybe next time.

Mr. Sakichi.

Am I stranger to you?

Do I look a little differently?

You grew up.

I didn't recognize you.

You know I'm here.

How could you pass by?

It's still early
No customers around.

Why don't you come up and have some tea?

No money needed, mister.

Sakichi.

Here's a customer
Be ready to serve sake.

Customer this early?

He's a special guest, be quick.

Special? Who?

Mr. Sakichi from lyo.

That guy.

I got deceived by him too
and sold to here.

Where is he?
In your room?

I'll drag and drop him into the sea.

He's my customer.

Do not touch him.

You ended up here because of him
Don't you hate him?

He is a good guy.

Stupid. Are you dreaming?

He is a guy born to be evil.

He comes to you kindly first
then capitalizes a woman thoroughly.

Yakuza would have more
warmth and kindness

I said I take him as a customer
It's none of your business

I'm happy to see you fine

I'm pretty fine as you see.

Thanks to you.

I eat fish
white rice

and secure life.

Did you go to see the grandma's grave
in the summer?

Granma's grave?
I don't need to.

Grandma is always by my side.

I have no business with the grave.

The grave is descent
You should go to see that.

I have to tell grandma.

Rin got grown and beautiful.

I would tell her so, mister.

Why did you cut your hair?

You looked nice with the long one.

Mister.

I want you to stay with me today.

Sorry I have an appointment.

I don't have much time.

Gotta be back till the evening.

Mister.

You don't change at all
since the day I met you.

You are gentle

and kind.

Really kind.

Mister.

Rin.

Rin.

Rin

I didn't know you are this strong.

Are you a man?
Is this really a big deal for you?

You look like as if I was killing you.

You are almost killing me.

Was I almost killing you?

That was really scary, wasn't it?

Rin.

Do you hate me
to the point you kill me?

I forget what happened in the past

I'm already tainted.

Rin.

I have to go.

Don't you need my servise?

No way.

Bye.

Rin.

I heard Sakichi died last night.

He fell into the sea
from the night fishing boat.

I see.

He died.

He's a man like yakuza.

People say he was
killed by his partners.

That's what he deserves
for leeching women's blood.

I think
he didn't want to live anymore.

What is this?

What's inside?

Is this for me?

Do you like it?

Beautiful

I've never seen a stuff this beautiful

I found it in the antique
shop in Nagasaki

I thought you liked it.

Mister, you gave me a
nice bowl last time.

Why do you treat me so nice?

Because I like you very much.

Would you serve me tonight too?

Mister

I neither smile
or say flattery to customers

have trouble with them all the time.

Why you like me?

I like your frankness.

Whore is hard business.

You can't smile cusomers everytime.

If you want to get mad, go ahead.

Go ahead, go ahead.

Can I crash everything
on the table, then?

Sure you can
Do it to your heart content

I will cover your ass.

I got it.

Go, keep going.

Yes, you can.

Rin, how do you think
about that gentleman?

He's generous, isn't he?

He's kind.

Cheerful and funny
I feel relieved when I am with him.

He is the executive of the trade union.

Has tons of money.

He says if you like.

He can buy out your contract.

Buy me out?

What a surprise.

How do you think?
You don't like it?

It's good thing.

You'll have luxury
and secured life.

Unfortunately.

I won't be a mistress for an old guy.

Tell him no.

Don't you have desire at all?

Are you serious?

Don't get me wrong.

I have much bigger hope.

What is it? tell me.

It's a hope to be alone.

Rin won't be anybody's property
won't need anybody's help

I'll live by myself.

It's beautiful

looks pretty expensive

- where does it come from?
- It's not made in Japan.

Can't believe it's man-made.

What are you doing?

Do not touch it.

It's mine.

What's the fuss about it?

What's so beautiful?

Rin.

Whatever you upset with
Don't break stuff this way.

That's what stupid does.

Don't stop me.

You are smart and competitive

but dishonest and twisted.

Don't preach me.

You look down on others
and get on high horse

but you can't live
by yourself forever.

Think it over.

Whatever you say is usuless

I don't take your word.

Rin.

Rin.

Soil is sacred.

It has enormous power

that feeds trees and plants.

Humans are the same.

If you get hurt
rub the soil into it

it's cured soon.

When you get into trouble.

Lay on the earth.

Ask what to do.

It will help you, Rin.

Grandma.

Grandma.

I don't know what to do.

Go back to mountan, Rin

plenty of soil is there.

So, come back here.

Right? Rin.

How can I go back to mountain?

There's no way I can.

Grandma, is there?

Where you from?

Why do you park the boart this place?

Did you get lost?

Doing something bad and running away?

Aren't you?

Haven't seen you around here.

You are from outside?

Are you from lyo?

Going back there?

Please.

Let me get on this boat.

Please mister.

Mister, please

I'm not going to lyo.

Wherever.

I want to get out of here.

I would do everything for you.

Are you deaf?
Don't you hear?

Answer me, please.

Say something.

Don't you let me get on the boat?

Mister, please.

You are Rin, aren't you?

How do you know my name?

I come here once a month
but don't get on the island.

However.

I want to evangelize girls like you.

What is evangelize?

Who are you?

Tell me your name.

I am a pastor
visiting the islands of this area.

You are a pastor then help me.

Let me get on the boart

I've never ask a help
from others but please

I wish to help you but not today.

You need money to escape.

I sure will help you someday
Just wait

I can't wait any longer

I want to go today.

I don't trust promise for someday.

Rin.

Why are you so suspicious?

If you don't trust
anybody doesn't help you

that is a lie.

You are trying to cheat me.

Just going to lyo won't help
Chasers come after you.

You got to run far away
We need money to do that.

How could we make that money?

I can't say.

However Rin.

Until the day I come here again
Do not die whatever happens.

Live on.

In the name of the God

please help this meager girl Rin.

Get off your high horse.

I don't count on others.

I live by myself freely.

Hey

I'll give you a discout
Why don't you drop by?

Okay, we take it.

Madam, here's guests.

Welcome, here you go.

Please come up.

Rin.

You took away my customer.

Hey answer me.

What's wrong with it?

Whore's life is war.

If manner gets in here
we couldn't make a living

I'm a whore now
So I'll do the best I can.

I don't want to lose.

You hustle too much
I bet you'll be broken

and get a desease.

Unfortunaltely for you

I've never been sick
since the day I was born.

Taking men 3 to 5 times more than you
won't affect me.

You are born to be whore.

Yes I'm a dirty woman.

Animal.

Be an animal and get revenge on society.

Fuck this.

You wanna fight with me?

Bitch.

Father come here.

Rin is fighting again.

Rin stop.

Get away from me.

Rin stop it.

Again!

That's too bad for you.

Please be patient.

Rin, never forget this

I'm sure you hear it
No-hair-whore, Rin.

Rin.

There's unwritten rules
even for whores.

You have to respect it.

A whore takes costomers
Simple as that?

That brings money to you, doesn't it?

What you talking about?

You sometimes take a customer for free.

What's your story?

I just try to make you upset.

However

I am taking many customers
more than others.

Taking a few for free
doesn't net you a loss.

Then, why are you stealing
costomer's money sometimes?

I want stupids get punished that way.

That's it.

Rin.

If you keep behave this way.

You'll get what you deserve everntually.

Don't you understand?

I do!

1935

Rin.

Get up
you sleep too much.

It's dark.

Is it stomy today?

Storm?
You should be awake.

It's beautiful today. Sunny.

Is it?

I'm sleepy.

So badly sleepy.

Get out from the bed
and wash your face.

What's wrong with you?

Strange. Anything wrong with eyes?

Do you get blind?

You dare to say it again?

I'll make you pay for it.

Why do you think I'm blind?

Why?
Tell me.

Because you take customers too much.

So I thought bad desease
got to your eyes.

What is the bad desease?

What is it?

Stop it Rin.

Get away.

Stupid.

Shit stupid.

Where are you?

Where you running away?

Come in front of me.

Hospital.

Both of your eyes are bad.

Right is completely blind

left can barely see 30cm.

My eyes are not bad

I'm just tired.

You have done too much.

That makes you blind.

But you are still young.

Stay calm and healthy
You'll be getting better

I'll talk to your master.

Doctor.

Please, don't say to anybody

I want to keep it secret.

Doctor please don't.

Please.

Please doctor.

Rin, are your eyes okay?

I can see.

Very well.

Everything is clear.

Is that true?

I told you I can see.

Then, why don't you row the boat?

Can you do that?

I'll do.

Let's go to the sea.

Get dressed.

Rin, don't do that.

How can you row the boat
if your eyes can't see.

It's reckless

I'm alright

I'm not afraid of the sea

or the boat.

Come with me.

Boat is rolling.

Rin, let's get back
please Rin.

Shut up.

But Rin.

Can't you see the boat?

The boat is hitting to other one.

Rin stop it.

Anybody.

Is anybody there?

I can see.

See clearly.

Rin, there's a guest, wake up.

No

I'm not inclined.

What you talking about, get ready.

Master, is blind your next sales pitch?

That doesn't work

because I'm not blind.

Okay, way to go.

Rin.

You don't cut your hair anymore?

I lost scissors.

You get paled.

Since I don't go outside.

You don't talk much recently.

I hate people in the first place.

So complicated.

I heard you don't take costomer.

Because I fed up with this job.

You well depoit the money you earned.

With that money and
a good doctor in Hiroshima

your eyes can be healed.

My eyes have no problem.

There's no difference between
seeing things well or worse.

Seeing is seeing.

Then, what about going back to Shikoku

being a pilgrim, and pray to the God?

I think your eyes can be good again.

Back to Shikoku.

Be a pilgrim.

Before being a pilgrim
Getting out of this place is very hard.

You will be caught pretty quickly.

Whores won't be released
until they are crippled.

Only then I can be a pilgrim.

Am I wrong?

You came here when you were 13
and now you are 16.

You can opt out the contract next year.

The contract is extended to 20.

Since I became blind
I messed things up

that made my debt bigger.

I wonder how to do with Rin.

She takes only 4 or 5 costomers lately.

We have to keep her
while she is still earning.

But I am worrying about rumours

like one of our ladies has desease

and should stay away from us
that will ruin our business.

Don't worry.

Time solves the issue
People will come back to Rin.

Rin.

Rin.

Today is 8th of April.

The day of the buddha.

Do you want to come to temple
and drink some herbal tea?

Tea?

It brings you a fortune.

Why don't you come down?
I'll take you to the temple.

What's the deal with tea?

I don't want to go.

Rin, where are you going?

Where?

Leave it.

Should be somewhere around here.

Rin!

Rin!

Who is it?

Who?

Who are calling to me?

Rin.

Let me go, what you doing?

Don't worry, Rin.

You are the one who called to me?

Leave me, leave.

Who are you?

Here you go, get on the boat
Don't need to worry.

Boat?

Boat?

To the temple by the boat?

Who are you?

Please tell me.

Are you going to rape me?

Taking advantage of my blindness
That what you do?

Say who you are.

Answer me.

Aren't you thirsty?

Water is right on your back.

Rice balls there too.

Have as much as you want.

We have a long way.

Who are you?

Did we meet sometime ago?

Pastor?

Don't worry.

I see you became a good girl

I'll take you to the place
you wanted to go.

Do you know where I want to go?

Out of the island and back to lyo?
I know that.

I see you are the pastor at that time.

Don't need to talk.

Forget about the past.

We keep going.

Going to Shikoku by this boat.

Do not go back to the island.

Don't be a whore again.

Whatever happend to you, okay?

You are.

Mister.

You are.

Here's 10 yen.

Go back to Shikoku with this money.

Do not go back to the mountain
you used to live.

Be a pilgrim and visit the temples

I'll tell my friend monk about you.

Mister.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Hey let me row.

Thank you.

Mister.

Mister.

Stop.

I can't thank you enough.

Let me row the boat.

We want to reach the other side
before sunset.

Thank you.

I won't forget your help
for the rest of my life.

Please tell me your name, mister.

Please do me a favor.

Rin.

It's better not to say it.

No need to know it.

No, I can't accept 10 yen for free.

Please mister.

Do whatever as you like to me.

This is Rin's gratitude.

Please don't refuse.

Do not embarrass me.

This is not what a whore
is saying anymore.

It's true, mister.

It's straight from the heart of Rin.

I won't forget this for life.

It's gratitude from a blind Rin.

Please accept.

Please.

Please.

The End
