Dai was born to deaf parents and was raised with deep love in rural Japan. As he grows older, he becomes troubled by his differences from others and begins to blame his deaf mother for his daily frustrations. At 20, Dai leaves for Tokyo to escape. Life is lonely at first, but when Dai starts working as a magazine reporter, he finds fulfilment. Eight years later Dai returns home for the first time. Spending time with his mother, a repressed memory is reawakened and his perspective on life and family begin to change…

Filled with empathy and hope, O’s sensitively observed drama subtly portrays a unique worldview without ever resorting to condescension or pity. Based on an autobiographical essay by writer Dai Igarashi.

Starring: Ryo Yoshizawa, Akiko Oshidari, Yusuke Santamaria, Setsuko Karasuma, Denden
