MIDNIGHT SPECIAL SCREENING
This TV miniseries will be presented in its entirety. The latest work from the acclaimed Japanese filmmaker Kiyoshi Kurosawa (Cure, Pulse, Tokyo Sonata) focuses on the mysterious murder of a young girl kidnapped at her own school while playing with four classmates. None of the girls can remember the abductor's face, and the victim's mother condemns them to: “Do whatever you have to to find the killer. Otherwise, you can pay a penance that I approve.”
