Bunjaku HAN

The Kajiwara deputy, representative of the opposition, intervened

to report possible corruption which gave rise to this agreement.

He wanted an explanation from the Deputy Prime Minister Yamamoto

and with the Miura deputy.

This is starting to look like

the some historical corruption that happened at Lockheed.

Hello, big sister?

It's Nami. Are you there?

Hello?

So what's going on?

It's weird. She picks up but hangs up without saying anything.

Really?

It's not like her.

Maybe she's there with her boyfriend and their having a bit of fun.

Come on, get in.

Let's go to Hakone or somewhere else.

I can't wait till we get married.

You know, I don't have to go in to work tomorrow.

What do you say?

But I have to tell my sister I'm not coming.

Call her back tonight.

Okay?

I want to be alone with you today.

You'll be able to see your sister tomorrow.

I'm really worried about her. Can we head back to Tokyo?

I understand.

She's like a mother to you.

Of course I'll take you there.

Directed by Yutaka KOHIRA

Sorry we're late. This is Kosaka.

- How do you do. - I am her sister.

- Have a seat. - Thank you.

Nami has said so many nice things about you. Thank you for everything.

I'm glad we finally get to meet each other.

- Are you staying here? - Yes.

I called you at home.

But someone picked up and didn't say anything.

It was so rude! Who was it?

Nobody said anything? Are you sure you had the right number?

Yes, I had the right number.

I don't think you did.

It doesn't matter.

Are you on vacation or for work?

Both, more or less.

You're acting strange. ls something wrong?

No, not at all.

In fact...

I have something for you.

50 million yen.

The booklet is in your name.

It is a little early, but it's my wedding gift for you.

Then, I'll give you my coat, that you wanted.

Big sister...

Nami.

I wish you the best of luck.

Understand?

You have to go to the airport now.

Wait for me in the parking lot.

What was that about?

Nothing. Don't worry about it.

I just want to be happy, like you.

Kosaka.

Make my sister happy.

Please.

Of course.

Did you know that man?

Taeko!

Hurry!

Sugino!

Sugino!

Big sister!

Are you okay?

This could be just a simple accident.

Or do you think this was set up?

My sister would never do that.

Chief, I found this in his pocket.

A Passport...

and two plane tickets for Paris.

Satoru Sugino, 30 years old. You know him?

No.

What's your sisters profession?

Secretary of the Miura deputy.

Miura? Vice-minister of Justice?

We're here.

Try to get a good nights sleep.

If they don't call about your sister by tomorrow morning,

we'll drive down to the police station.

Be strong.

You can call me at any hour. okay?

Nami.

What I'm going to say is not a joke.

Listen to me well.

They're go...

to kill me.

On this cassette, you will hear

important information.

Which could change the government forever.

I must ask you

to keep this in a safe place.

Then...

if ever something happens to me,

make it public

and avenge me.

House of Commons

You want to tell me why you killed Taeko?

Don't say such silly things.

Why would I do something like that?

You know very well why.

I've no idea what you mean.

I have bigger problems than this...

- My secretary disappeared. - Mister!

She's speaking to you seriously. Answer her sincerely.

- I am answering sincerely. - No you haven't.

If I remember well, the owner of your company is named Terazawa,

isn't it?

I can tell him that one of his insolate workers is disturbing me.

You better watch you words!

I am very busy.

I've no time to lose since my secretary suddenly disappeared.

Don't change the subject.

I have evidence right here that you took my sister.

What do you mean?

If this cassette is made public, your political career is finished.

Am I wrong?

This cassette was made by her sister.

You must be well-informed of its contents.

If you don't return my sister to me,

I will send the cassette to the newspapers.

I made a copy of it.

It's time for the Budget Committee's meeting.

Please Sir, answer me!

Where is my sister?

I am glad that you decided to come alone.

What if I give you the other cassette...

I'd like you to give me the other cassette.

Maybe then we can talk business.

Are you joking?

It's true politics can be a dirty job.

But you can't control a country

with only nice ideas.

The same applies to Kennedy and Nixon. In Japan also...

I don't care about that! Give me back my sister.

If you listen to me, I won't publish it.

Since she means so much to you, I'll let you see her.

Big sister!

Do you know the face of this man?

Kajiwara, chief of the Cabinet of Opposition.

Even men of Parliament can't have enough women.

In general, all politicians are womanizers.

But compared to our society,

they can't live one day without fucking someone.

So we gave him a gift, the young and beautiful Taeko.

- It's all part of her job. - You bastard!

Don't act like that in front of your sister.

It's because of her that you went to College.

In other words, her money, all came from this.

Forget your pride!

She works real hard.

All is well for the Committee on Budgets?

I took measures for the Opposition.

Please.

The Opposition gave up its request.

That's great.

Think about the future

because in 10 years,

you'll be a potential candidate for the Presidency.

I thank you.

Mister.

Apparently she has given the cassette to her boyfriend.

I see.

Take care of it.

But what to about these 2 women?

Let me get rid of them.

I'm counting on you.

Wake up!

Big sister!

You're under arrest for murder.

I heard her scream:

"Help!! Someone's trying to kill me!"

It was the voice of Taeko.

Liar!

Her sister was against our marriage.

Because of that.

Nami said to me one day

that she wanted to kill her sister.

Here's the verdict.

Nami Matsushima, you are committed to 15 years of imprisonment.

Woman's prison of Kasugafuchi

It's us!

Here's the two transfers from Tokyo.

Mister director, here it is.

Name and age.

Answer him!

It says it right there doesn't it? Just read it.

Get Up!

Give me your name and age.

Hideko Hirayama.

I am 25 years old.

And.

Nami Matsushima. 22 years.

Sororicide.

Okabe.

I warn you in the place of the director.

This "Place" is not a girls school or a hotel.

It's a prison.

Don't ever forget that.

- Understood? - Were you saying something?

- What was that? - Nothing noth...

Take Hideko to cell 6 and Nami to isolation.

Wait!

Nami will go in cell 8.

But Mister director, Nami's a murderer.

Do what I tell you to do.

Let's go!

Is Fusae Suzuki in solitary?

How is she?

Even if she were killed, she wouldn't die.

A true pistol! She up the leftovers.

I see.

Bring her back to Cell 8.

But with a condition, that you already know.

Understood.

It will be a beautiful spectacle.

Kazuo Miura, Vice-minister of Justice

Yes, it's me.

Takamura here.

Your little package just arrived.

Yes, I know it well.

She'll commit suicide,just like you wanted.

Thank you very much.

I am very grateful.

How are you, Suzuki?

Did that teach you something?

If I was scared of getting punished,

I wouldn't be the leader of this place.

You've been with us over 15 years.

You really are something? Aren't you?

What you would do if I told you you're staying in here 3 more months?

3 months?

Don't bullshit me.

But according to the rules the maximum in here is 1 month.

Rules?

Are you trying to teach me something now?

If you really want,

I can keep you in here for a year,

or until you die.

You're fucking crazy.

Get the hell out of here! Bastard!

I can get you out of this.

But I have a condition.

Oh god, this feels so good.

So what are you in for?

Tell me.

You want to have an attitude with me?

You keep that up, you won't last long in here.

Number 701, Nami Matsuhima, for Cell #8.

Chief!

Take her in.

Enter.

Who's this?

She's yours as of today. Be nice to her.

You can count on us.

Cell #8 is a group of model prisoners.

You can sleep with me tonight.

Bitch, you're all mine tonight.

I'm going to make you scream like a cat in heat.

Silence!

Listen up! I don't want you causing any trouble.

Mister guard,

are you done showing off in front of the new girl?

Don't make fun of me.

Get over there.

You didn't say hello to us.

Who said you could sit down?

Bitch.

Answer me.

You're a tough girl aren't you! I love it.

I can't wait to taste that sweet little pussy.

Show her how we treat girls that think they're better than us.

Who do you think you are?

Hold her down.

I don't like your fucking attitude.

You're nothing in here.

Do you understand me better now?

You want me to rip it off?

What's going gm?

What did you do to number 701?

Nothing.

As soon as you left she started shouting how she wanted to leave this place.

We were just trying to console her. Right, girls?

Exactly.

Is she lying?

I don't know.

When you've lived for 20 years in this place,

eyes and ears don't work like they used to.

Nami, what'd they do?

She's hurt. Let's take her to the infirmary.

Okay.

That's enough!

But, chief!

It's just a little prisoner rough-housing.

No need to get all in a panic.

Yes, but Nami is hurt.

Is her leg broken?

No.

Then leave her.

But chief, this situation is...

What is the situation?

When I was small

I loved the springtime

in

my hands

innocently

I sought

A white butterfly

Between the light feathers

I only dream

Of my native land...

Here's the verdict.

Nami Matsushima, you are committed to 15 years of imprisonment.

You awake!

You awake!

Get Up!

Time to get to work!

Where's the new girl at?

You making her a special plate?

As long as your in this place,

you gotta respect the boss.

Poor girl...

they want to hang her in 10 days.

Sit down!

Mister! Apparently the food in here isn't good enough for her.

Nami, what's going on?

You don't eat in the morning?

They won't force you to eat it here.

What is that?

Yeah, I see you have rice.

Show her how to eat it.

Ear!

I said eat it!

Eat it.

Eat, eat it!

Eat it!

Isn't it good?

You fucking bitch! I'll show you!

Sit your ass down!

Time for your soup!

That should be enough.

Everybody eat!

You'll have to clean up your mess.

Understood?

Do whatever you can to torture her.

I saw you this morning.

You really are an idiot. What's wrong with you?

All you gotta do is kiss that old boss' ass.

I'm telling you this for your good.

What're you doing?

Eating the garbage cos you wouldn't eat your breakfast in there?

You really are weird.

Looks like she likes it.

Look out your highness!

Almost there.

You can do it.

Almost there.

Start over again!

What are you up to? Get back to your places.

Hurry if UP!

Nami, what're you doing down there? Get back up here.

Are you crazy? Hurry.

You like that?

Right?

Answer me.

Pick up the pace.

What's happening here?

You don't need 8 people to do this.

Suzuki and Nami will stay. The others will work outside.

YES.

Hurry it up.

You better finish by the end of the day.

Understood?

There'll be nobody to disturb us.

Perfect.

You want to do it yourself or do you want me to help you?

You don't seem to understand.

You're going to put your head in here and kill yourself.

Let's get this over with.

Bitch!

Wait.

They forced me to do it.

I didn't want to.

It's the director who wants to kill you.

I swear to you.

Some deputy requested it with the director.

If you don't believe me, go and ask him.

I beg you.

Don't do it.

Suzuki used this lighter to smoke a cigarette

that one of the guards had hid. when she put out the cigarette

she didn't realize that petrol had leaked on the floor and it caught fire.

This is Nami's version of the story.

That is enough.

- Get her out of here. - Yes.

Mister director, the Miura deputy said

there's another copy of the cassette.

Cassette? What do you mean?

- I know she did it. - But we have no proof.

- You want to avenge her? - We can't let it slide.

We should plan it out first.

You shouldn't do it.

What do you want to say, old woman?

Shut your mouth, you old hag.

No.

I think you'll be interested in what this old woman has to say.

She's not an ordinary woman.

There is only one thing in her heart.

It's...

hatred.

She's suffered so much in the outside world.

Don't touch her,

you're playing with fire.

Leave her be.

She's number 701.

She burned up our boss.

But why is she in here?

I heard she killed her sister.

How could someone do something so horrible with that soft face?

It's true.

Nami, you have a visitor.

Hurry.

Are you Nami Matsushima?

I am a journalist

with the daily newspaper.

Wait.

I am the superior of Sugino, he was killed.

- Sugino? - That's right.

The man that your sister wanted to run away with.

The man who killed Sugino is still out there.

I've been trying to figure this all out.

I started doing research on all who were involved.

You know

Your fiancé Toshihiko Kosaka,

is engaged to the daughter of the Miura deputy?

Apparently he left his job

to become the third secretary of Miura.

I have this feeling...

that a gigantic political plot is hiding

behind all of this business.

Am I wrong?

I am a journalist.

I'd like to reveal the truth at all costs...

on Sugino, you and your sister.

But...

I don't have any proof.

By meeting you,"

I'll just tell you this.

There's another cassette.

It that true?

804 enter.

Enter.

A new girl.

- It's her. - She transferred from Kansai.

She must be tough-shit.

Look at the scar on her face.

She's amazing!

- What did she do? - Idiot!, she's famous...

We're just drying out our shirts

so they don't mold.

Ah, here it is!

Do you girls miss being with men?

Obviously.

- You want to be with me? - You? Ha, no thank you.

Somebody wants to speak to you.

Don't worry everything's okay.

Here she is.

Hiroko Matsui, cell #3 of building 1.

Masako Nabeshima, same cell.

What do you want?

You really want to stay here for 15 years?

Well, we don't.

I think you feel the same as us.

We have explosives.

It took us one year to find the material for it.

You know the anarchists who made blew up the office of the police force?

She was part of that.

There's about 20 of us.

But we need a leader to carry out this kind of operation.

Since you killed the big boss, you're well qualified for the job.

Give us an answer as soon as you can.

Okay?

Pick up the ball.

I'm sorry.

I asked her to pick it up, not you!

Move over, I want some shade.

What?

I told you to move!

What's going gm?

Stop!

Now you get to be a caterpillar all week, have fun.

Make it quick.

We're waiting for your answer.

Everyone will take part if you accept.

Don't do it.

These prisoners here are good for nothing.

They're not worth it.

If you really think all of you can get out of here,

then it's all over.

You got to think about yourself.

So, are you trying to tell me you planned for us to be in here?

So you figured it out.

Congratulations.

I know who wanted to really escape right when I saw you.

We have to work with them, we need them.

We have a lot of time to talk in here, so we can plan this thing out perfectly.

So are you with me?

Move!

Get Up!

You better not start any more shit.

Come on!

There's worse things we can do to you.

Come on!

I accept your proposal.

But, I'll be the one leading it.

What? In exchange for a cigarette pack?

I'll take anything, a pack of 10's. lights or Seven Star.

You don't have to worry.

All the other guards do it.

Think of it as practice, you can try whatever you do later on to your wife.

Which one can I fuck?

I'll tell you later, it's a secret.

Don't worry just wait.

Okay.

I won't get in trouble?

Trust me.

Just don't look at her face.

Stop, Ito!

We got a favor to ask of you.

Are you sure there won't be a problem?

She's engaged to that nice guard Nakajima.

So what are we going to do about this?

Who did you give your weapon to?

To Nami Matsushima.

That whore.

I had a feeling the girls were up to something.

I was right.

If something happens because of your weapon,

not only will you hand in your badge...

but I'll kill you personally.

I am really sorry Sir.

You protect Nami sometimes.

But you finally understand who she is, right?

Idiot!

Wait!

Don't worry about him.

Okabe.

Bring Nami here without anybody knowing it.

YES.

We'll make her talk about her plan, and who her accomplices are.

Where's 701? Why didn't she come to work?

The guard took her, she had a visitor.

A visitor? That cant last 2 hours.

I don't know anything. Ask the guards.

Listen to me well.

You'll keep working until 21:00, without stopping.

You can eat when you're done.

You can't do this to us!

They excavated all the cells.

What are they looking for?

They must be torturing Nami as we speak.

Do not underestimate our prison.

Where's the weapon?

Tell me!

Say it!

How much can you take? You want more?

Eh!

When did you plan to escape? Tell me!

Whore.

I could beat you to death right here if I wanted to.

In the beginning, Miura wanted me to kill you.

But she changed her mind.

But I still want you dead.

You hear me?

Take her down!

Nakajima.

Avenge your fiancée. Fuck her.

Stick it in her ass and fuck her till she screams,

I want her to always

remember this.

But...

I can't...

Idiot!

You call yourself a civil servant?

Watch me!

Torture or even death, she'll never confess.

But, both of you will be in solitary tomorrow.

If you want, we have to escape now.

Now or never.

We're lucky there's a storm.

This is the perfect moment for the escape of the century.

So, what is it?

Are you scared?

We still have hidden weapons in here.

After dinner, it'll be too late.

What's going on?

There's no time. Go.

Come on!

Go!

YES.

What's happening?

What?

Reinforce the grounds, especially the entrance.

Do not hesitate to shoot.

Why didn't you escape?

I always keep my word.

Go, hurry.

Don't move!

Fire!

Fire!

Don't give up.

This is it.

I had all this prepared

when I was free.

The women can disguise themselves.

With these clothes and make-up, we can get through the police roadblocks!

Come on.

Get dressed.

What are you waiting for? Hurry.

What you...

Why... Why me?

Hello? Chisa?

Did you finish her off yet?

Hello, Chisa?

Answer me.

Is this Sasaki, the so-called journalist?

I lied about the other cassette.

Thanks for helping me get out of prison.

What?

I became a woman

Just like the autumn

I finally understood

the changing of my life

Why is there always tears with love?

I look at him from far away

A dead leaf falls

On the letter that he left me

I had a wonderful time at the party.

My father congratulated you

by saying that you were a qualified secretary.

- Is that true? - Hurry up.

Natsuko!

Nami.

Wait.

Let me explain.

They were going to kill you.

I thought at least if you were in prison, they wouldn't harm you.

You understand?

It's not my fault.

I beg you.

Please understand.

Forgive me!

You are...

the only man that I loved.

You'll take me in your arms

even in front of your dear wife?

Hello.

Have you talked to the Prime Minister yet?

Not yet.

The old man is still alive. He's a tough one!

Is this about how the Minister for Justice is in the hospital?

Yes. He's in a critical condition.

As soon as he dies, a new minister will be selected.

I am one of the top candidates.

You will finally be minister!

Yes, "finally"'.

- Is Matsuo here? - Not yet.

Where the hell is he at an important time like this?

Yes, he's there.

I understand.

The General secretary asks you

to come quickly to the residence of the Prime Minister.

Thank you.

Call Kaga and Takada.

What are you doing?

Fuck this, I'll run her over.

Don't do this. I am being appointed.

I'll kill her.

And now

I love the winter

Because I can wander

In this world

Colder than the icy sky

In the search of warmth

to comfort me

only me, all alone

I love the winter
