Kamachi (2004)

The film opens in 1975 with the character Kamachi Yamada, who strives to be the best he can be. His motto throughout his life was "24 hours a day is not enough." However, when he fails to get into an elite school, he enlists in a cram school, where he meets Yoko, who he falls in love with. After confessing his love, she suggests they remain friends, much to his dismay. Twenty years later, Shun starts a web site, calling for people to "enter another world." A girl, Miyuki, and a boy, Yuichi, respond. All three attend the same cram school, of which an older Yoko is now an instructor, and Miyuki purchases sleeping pills from Shun. Throughout the film, Yoko helps troubled teens in breaking away from the use of drugs and learning to live in the moment. In the end, she tells Miyuki about Kamachi, who was trying to live his life to the fullest, and how much he loved her. In 1977, two years after Kamachi and Yoko met, Kamachi had received the news that his studying paid off and he was accepted into an elite high school. It was also the day when Yoko had told Kamachi that it was possible they would not remain friends forever. In 1977, at the age of seventeen, Kamachi lost his life due to being electrocuted from malfunctioning musical equipment. His death was caused by the very guitar he was given for his birthday a few months prior. (Source: Wikipedia) ~~ Adapted from a novel by Yamada Chizuko. Edit Translation
