Yori and his sister, Iku, are twins. They used to be very close as children but now that they are in high school, Yori has become cold toward Iku. Iku is confused by Yori's attitude. Actually, the reason why Yori has been cold and avoiding her is because he is secretly in love with her. What will Yori do about this forbidden love?

I watched this movie more than 2 years ago.
The reason why I suddenly feel the need to write a review is because I believe it has been wronged in more than one respect. First, the badly written synopsis which focuses on irrelevant details and gives the impression this were a depraved movie of some sort - which is not.
Second, because I have a very hard time understanding why anyone should watch a movie well knowing it deals with incest and then complain about the fact that it portrays such a delicate and offending issue. It's like eating at a sushi bar and then refusing to pay because one doesn't like raw fish.

The main theme of this movie is two biological siblings loving each other. This is not a spoiler, as it is clearly stated in the synopsis. If you think you can't face the issue and are disgusted by the idea, I suggest you simply don't watch it.
On the other hand, if you can confront the matter of an adolescent being obsessed with his sister, this movie deals with it in a delicate, far from vulgar way. It is very well acted and stresses upon the internal - we may call it infernal too - struggle of the male lead to overcome his obsession.
It's a slow film which doesn't play on events as much as it tries to depict the battle between reason and passion. It is not a romantic movie by any means either, and yet there's a sweetness surrounding some of the scenes which goes beyond the mere issue of this being a wrong sort of love.

I can't remember the music, hence the non-committal mark.

Among all the movies I like to rewatch, this is certainly not on the top of my list. However, it is a brave movie which I believe deserves at least some fair mentioning.

This movie has got very specific climate. When I'd read the tittle the first time, I was convinced that this story tells about jealousy overprotective brother towards younger sister. I've been surpriced since I read a short decription. Japan doesn't afraid of taking controversial subjects, and that's why I like its.

Actually, the movie seems like calm relation, but it's good story. I suppose I will watch it again someday.
