Synopsis

Seventeen-year-old Sayako Amanokawa dreams of becoming a journalist like the respected reporter Kanemoto. When a false corruption story destroys his reputation and drives him to suicide, Sayako begins seeing spirits and narrowly survives a supernatural encounter that overturns everything she believed about death.

Determined to uncover the truth, she investigates a rising religious movement and the forces surrounding a man proclaimed to be the reborn Buddha. Her search places journalism, faith, and spiritual warfare on the same dangerous path, where deception threatens both the living and the dead.
