This freak happenstance awakens a long-dormant ambition in Junco: convinced that her discovery was not a striking enough find, she hatches an ill-conceived scheme to make it seem more dramatic. The next day, Junco's psychic sonar goes off and she discovers the missing child in their garage. Ironically enough, the girl escapes her captor and takes refuge in Katsuhiko's equipment case while he records sounds in the mountains. At Hayakawa's behest, the cops consult with Junco as to the child's whereabouts. At the same time, the police are desperately searching for a young girl who was kidnapped by an ex-cop turned pervert. Katsuhiko is aware of her unusual abilities but prefers to think of her as "normal." Young psychology graduate student Hayakawa (Teuyoshi Kusanagi) invites Junco to join his study on the paranormal. Though she has slowly and quietly built a reputation as a medium, she proves to be completely incapable of working in a normal service industry job she has the unfortunately tendency of being able to see the crimes of her patrons. While at first glance Junco seems to be an average hausfrau, she possesses great clairvoyant powers. Katsuhiko (Koji Yakusho) is a mild-mannered sound-technician who is married to Junco (Jun Fubuki). The Sixth Sense and A Simple Plan by way of Martin Heidegger, this genre-bending thriller is directed by Kiyoshi Kurosawa.
