Hashi no Mukou

Young reporter Otoha returns to the neighborhood where she grew up to cover fighting between government forces and dissidents. The place carries an older fear for her: the childhood disappearance of her friend Jiro near a river associated with stories of missing children.

Separated from her companions, she is drawn deeper into the back streets by unsettling sounds and traces of the past. As familiar surroundings become strange, her reporting assignment gives way to a journey toward a boundary she does not fully understand.
