﻿1
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:13,568
<i>Winters didn't feel this cold...</i>

2
00:01:15,136 --> 00:01:16,865
<i>when I was a child.</i>

3
00:01:22,944 --> 00:01:26,402
<i>It's almost two weeks since I returned to Yamagata from Tokyo.</i>

4
00:01:28,783 --> 00:01:33,243
<i>Now that I think of it, I've lead such an unremarkable life.</i>

5
00:01:47,903 --> 00:01:49,268
Please, this way.

6
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:53,399
Coming in.

7
00:02:04,185 --> 00:02:06,915
My condolences.

8
00:02:08,657 --> 00:02:10,887
We are here to assist you with encoffining.

9
00:02:11,493 --> 00:02:14,053
May I light up the incense?

10
00:02:14,362 --> 00:02:15,920
Yes.

11
00:02:16,231 --> 00:02:17,721
Thank you for coming.

12
00:02:45,860 --> 00:02:47,521
Looks like she's still alive.

13
00:02:49,831 --> 00:02:51,526
Probably charcoal-burning suicide.

14
00:02:51,833 --> 00:02:53,130
How can you tell?

15
00:02:53,702 --> 00:02:54,862
The body is undamaged.

16
00:02:56,538 --> 00:03:00,069
This is what happens when someone is discovered immediately after death in a cold car.

17
00:03:03,578 --> 00:03:05,177
What a waste, she's beautiful.

18
00:03:09,017 --> 00:03:09,813
Do you want to try?

19
00:03:15,156 --> 00:03:16,020
Yes.

20
00:03:19,060 --> 00:03:23,284
For the deceased's peaceful departure,

21
00:03:23,531 --> 00:03:26,022
I will now commence the rite of encoffinment.

22
00:03:26,534 --> 00:03:29,002
Everyone, please see her off from up close.

23
00:05:30,358 --> 00:05:32,690
I will now begin the cleansing.

24
00:06:06,961 --> 00:06:08,519
It has the thing.

25
00:06:09,197 --> 00:06:10,289
What thing?

26
00:06:10,431 --> 00:06:11,523
<i>The thing.</i>

27
00:06:12,767 --> 00:06:13,756
What thing?

28
00:06:13,902 --> 00:06:14,994
You know, the thing...

29
00:07:00,548 --> 00:07:02,743
Err... May I have a word with you?

30
00:07:02,884 --> 00:07:04,351
Yes, what is it?

31
00:07:04,886 --> 00:07:06,786
After the cleansing,

32
00:07:06,955 --> 00:07:09,583
we apply makeup on the deceased...

33
00:07:11,159 --> 00:07:14,492
We have different makeups for male and female...

34
00:07:14,629 --> 00:07:16,859
Oh... please wait.

35
00:07:16,998 --> 00:07:17,760
Yes.

36
00:07:18,967 --> 00:07:22,232
Sis, which makeup do you want for Tomeo?

37
00:07:22,503 --> 00:07:24,869
Men's or girl's?

38
00:07:26,507 --> 00:07:28,600
Come on, which one?

39
00:07:28,810 --> 00:07:32,439
If I gave birth to a girl from the start,

40
00:07:32,814 --> 00:07:35,783
this would've never happened...

41
00:07:37,118 --> 00:07:38,415
<i>But thanks to someone's seed...</i>

42
00:07:43,191 --> 00:07:45,125
Girl's is fine then?

43
00:07:45,426 --> 00:07:45,983
Yep.

44
00:07:47,262 --> 00:07:48,627
Female's, please.

45
00:07:48,830 --> 00:07:50,092
Yes.

46
00:08:00,508 --> 00:08:01,975
Tomeo...

47
00:10:14,542 --> 00:10:18,535
Not many in the audience again today.

48
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,876
Yeah, they should put more effort into advertising.

49
00:10:23,284 --> 00:10:24,945
I know!

50
00:10:25,319 --> 00:10:27,116
Let's make a homepage for the orchestra.

51
00:10:27,288 --> 00:10:28,550
My wife's a web designer.

52
00:10:28,689 --> 00:10:29,883
I'll make her do it for free.

53
00:10:30,024 --> 00:10:31,286
What do you think?

54
00:10:31,826 --> 00:10:34,556
<i>More importantly, are you going to be fine?</i>

55
00:10:34,695 --> 00:10:35,992
About what?

56
00:10:36,164 --> 00:10:36,858
Next, the next.

57
00:10:37,265 --> 00:10:38,163
Next what?

58
00:10:38,332 --> 00:10:40,499
You spent so much money on that, gotta start looking for the next one.

59
00:10:42,770 --> 00:10:46,297
Good performance again, everyone.

60
00:10:46,441 --> 00:10:48,136
Good work everyone.

61
00:10:48,443 --> 00:10:50,604
Although the seats were empty...

62
00:10:50,778 --> 00:10:53,110
I think your performances were great.

63
00:10:55,817 --> 00:10:58,479
Um... actually...

64
00:10:59,987 --> 00:11:01,750
today...

65
00:11:03,091 --> 00:11:06,424
the owner of this orchestra, Mr. Sonezaki...

66
00:11:06,561 --> 00:11:08,825
has something to tell you,

67
00:11:08,996 --> 00:11:10,930
so please give him your attention.

68
00:11:24,212 --> 00:11:27,909
You're... disbanded.

69
00:11:36,257 --> 00:11:37,224
See ya.

70
00:11:41,329 --> 00:11:44,355
<i>I finally became an orchestra member.</i>

71
00:11:44,765 --> 00:11:48,701
<i>But it became a past memory in a flash.</i>

72
00:11:50,671 --> 00:11:52,866
<i>This cello is innocent.</i>

73
00:11:54,375 --> 00:11:56,741
<i>Only because it was bought by a loser like me,</i>

74
00:11:57,111 --> 00:11:59,341
<i>it lost its job.</i>

75
00:12:00,748 --> 00:12:02,045
<i>In many ways...</i>

76
00:12:02,583 --> 00:12:05,882
<i>this cello was too heavy for me.</i>

77
00:12:09,257 --> 00:12:10,724
Thank you very much.

78
00:12:10,858 --> 00:12:12,052
Please cook it immediately.

79
00:12:12,226 --> 00:12:12,954
Yes.

80
00:12:13,094 --> 00:12:14,186
Good-bye.

81
00:12:16,531 --> 00:12:17,589
I'm home.

82
00:12:17,765 --> 00:12:18,697
Welcome back.

83
00:12:18,933 --> 00:12:20,730
She gave me an octopus.

84
00:12:21,936 --> 00:12:24,404
I just happened to see our neighbor.

85
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,837
They just caught it this morning.

86
00:12:32,046 --> 00:12:33,377
What's wrong?

87
00:12:36,083 --> 00:12:37,573
Disbanded.

88
00:12:38,786 --> 00:12:39,912
What is?

89
00:12:41,189 --> 00:12:42,151
My orchestra.

90
00:12:48,829 --> 00:12:50,091
I see...

91
00:12:51,766 --> 00:12:53,791
You just have to find the next one.

92
00:12:54,635 --> 00:12:56,132
There won't be a next one.

93
00:13:00,308 --> 00:13:03,443
Someone with my skill level can only go so far...

94
00:13:05,613 --> 00:13:07,373
and there's the debt for this cello.

95
00:13:10,851 --> 00:13:11,818
How much?

96
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,924
Don't worry, if it's just 
around a 10,000 yen...

97
00:13:22,063 --> 00:13:24,395
I can pay it back with my job.

98
00:13:24,699 --> 00:13:25,825
180,000 yen.

99
00:13:26,167 --> 00:13:28,294
1... 180,000 yen?

100
00:13:29,370 --> 00:13:31,463
Pros all spend that much...

101
00:13:31,639 --> 00:13:33,630
it's relatively cheap.

102
00:13:37,345 --> 00:13:39,142
Why did you hide it from me?

103
00:13:41,148 --> 00:13:43,776
I knew you'd be against it.

104
00:13:46,821 --> 00:13:48,755
Why didn't you tell me...

105
00:13:49,290 --> 00:13:51,315
about something so important?

106
00:13:54,662 --> 00:13:55,651
I'm sorry.

107
00:14:04,772 --> 00:14:06,296
I'll make dinner.

108
00:14:13,180 --> 00:14:16,547
<i>"All the cities around the world are our new homes.</i>

109
00:14:17,318 --> 00:14:20,515
<i>Let's live together on a musical tour."</i>

110
00:14:21,022 --> 00:14:24,890
<i>Those were the words of my marriage proposal.</i>

111
00:14:26,260 --> 00:14:28,626
<i>But the reality is harsh.</i>

112
00:14:29,163 --> 00:14:34,731
<i>No, I should've realized the limit to my talent a lot sooner.</i>

113
00:14:41,409 --> 00:14:42,239
What happened?

114
00:14:44,278 --> 00:14:46,007
This octopus is alive!

115
00:14:46,747 --> 00:14:48,681
You're right. It's alive.

116
00:14:49,050 --> 00:14:50,813
Hey, Dai...

117
00:14:51,686 --> 00:14:52,710
what should we do?

118
00:14:56,856 --> 00:14:58,621
Don't get caught again.

119
00:15:07,301 --> 00:15:08,599
Huh?

120
00:15:35,329 --> 00:15:36,762
I think I'll quit.

121
00:15:39,367 --> 00:15:40,334
Quit what?

122
00:15:41,836 --> 00:15:42,768
Cello.

123
00:15:45,606 --> 00:15:47,403
What will you do then?

124
00:15:50,878 --> 00:15:53,642
Go back to the countryside... in Yamagata.

125
00:15:59,920 --> 00:16:01,314
I vote yes!

126
00:16:02,757 --> 00:16:03,587
Huh?

127
00:16:04,358 --> 00:16:05,382
You don't mind?

128
00:16:06,894 --> 00:16:10,125
Well, the house your mom left you...

129
00:16:10,264 --> 00:16:11,959
we don't need to pay rent, right?

130
00:16:12,099 --> 00:16:13,430
But you really don't mind?

131
00:16:14,668 --> 00:16:15,600
Yes.

132
00:16:23,344 --> 00:16:24,504
This is a wonderful instrument.

133
00:16:24,645 --> 00:16:27,944
<i>I thought it was the greatest turning point of my life,</i>

134
00:16:28,549 --> 00:16:32,785
<i>but for some reason, I felt relieved the instant I let go of the cello.</i>

135
00:16:34,188 --> 00:16:36,247
<i>As if I was suddenly released</i>

136
00:16:36,690 --> 00:16:39,158
<i>from being tied up.</i>

137
00:16:40,628 --> 00:16:43,119
<i>What I believed to be my dream...</i>

138
00:16:43,931 --> 00:16:46,991
<i>was probably not my real dream.</i>

139
00:17:00,114 --> 00:17:02,843
<i>The only thing my mother left me,</i>

140
00:17:03,317 --> 00:17:05,649
<i>when she died two years ago.</i>

141
00:17:07,721 --> 00:17:12,158
<i>I've been told my father ran the café at first,</i>

142
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,390
<i>but I have almost no recollection of it.</i>

143
00:17:16,931 --> 00:17:19,665
<i>After he left home for another woman,</i>

144
00:17:20,734 --> 00:17:23,932
<i>my mother ran this small café,</i>

145
00:17:24,738 --> 00:17:27,734
<i>and raised me alone.</i>

146
00:17:29,577 --> 00:17:31,442
Meal's ready.

147
00:17:33,047 --> 00:17:34,309
Okay.

148
00:17:42,089 --> 00:17:44,387
I thought you would hate the countryside more.

149
00:17:45,059 --> 00:17:47,391
No, it's kind of refreshing.

150
00:17:47,795 --> 00:17:50,628
I don't know if it's because of the water here, but the rice tastes better too.

151
00:17:50,764 --> 00:17:51,731
Really?

152
00:17:53,267 --> 00:17:56,725
Oh, maybe I'll start a shop.

153
00:17:56,904 --> 00:17:58,168
What will you sell?

154
00:18:04,445 --> 00:18:05,275
This is it!

155
00:18:06,614 --> 00:18:07,614
This, this one!

156
00:18:07,814 --> 00:18:10,041
No age limit, high salary?

157
00:18:10,284 --> 00:18:12,115
In addition, short actual working time?

158
00:18:13,087 --> 00:18:14,111
As a full-time employee!

159
00:18:14,288 --> 00:18:17,189
"NK Agent"? What kind of company is that?

160
00:18:17,658 --> 00:18:20,058
"A job that helps out journeys."

161
00:18:20,494 --> 00:18:21,722
A travel agency?

162
00:18:21,962 --> 00:18:23,896
Oh, maybe tour guide?

163
00:18:25,666 --> 00:18:27,395
It says "no experience necessary".

164
00:18:27,535 --> 00:18:29,093
I'll go ask for details.

165
00:18:29,470 --> 00:18:30,437
Yeah.

166
00:18:53,189 --> 00:18:54,758
This is it.

167
00:19:04,371 --> 00:19:05,668
Excuse me.

168
00:19:08,075 --> 00:19:10,839
Is this "NK Agent"?

169
00:19:11,078 --> 00:19:11,908
Yes...

170
00:19:12,613 --> 00:19:14,911
I'm Kobayashi, I called earlier.

171
00:19:16,116 --> 00:19:18,277
Oh, you're here for the interview!

172
00:19:18,419 --> 00:19:20,717
The boss will be back soon, sit here.

173
00:19:21,088 --> 00:19:23,522
Yes, thank you.

174
00:19:35,736 --> 00:19:36,725
I...

175
00:19:37,404 --> 00:19:40,430
was against it when the boss wanted to post the ad in the newspaper.

176
00:19:42,009 --> 00:19:42,668
Oh...

177
00:19:42,810 --> 00:19:45,171
It's extremely hard to attract people into this industry.

178
00:19:45,679 --> 00:19:49,547
Um... what does this company do?

179
00:19:50,818 --> 00:19:53,548
What? You came without knowing anything?

180
00:19:54,288 --> 00:19:55,880
It said to help out with journeys...

181
00:20:01,195 --> 00:20:03,390
Uh... that's not what you do?

182
00:20:11,872 --> 00:20:14,739
Boss, he's here for the interview.

183
00:20:15,175 --> 00:20:18,235
Nice to meet you, I'm Kobayashi.
I called you this morning.

184
00:20:18,946 --> 00:20:20,277
Oh, it's you.

185
00:20:22,783 --> 00:20:24,209
You seem more energetic than on the phone.

186
00:20:24,418 --> 00:20:25,579
Thank you.

187
00:20:25,953 --> 00:20:28,751
See? It was a good idea.
Pour some tea.

188
00:20:28,889 --> 00:20:29,617
Yes.

189
00:20:34,128 --> 00:20:35,322
I brought my resume just in case.

190
00:20:35,462 --> 00:20:36,724
Okay, sit down.

191
00:20:36,864 --> 00:20:37,956
Thank you.

192
00:20:47,041 --> 00:20:48,599
Can you put in lots of hours here?

193
00:20:48,742 --> 00:20:50,505
Huh? Uh... yes.

194
00:20:50,644 --> 00:20:51,508
You're hired.

195
00:20:51,712 --> 00:20:52,201
Eh?

196
00:20:52,346 --> 00:20:53,040
What's your name again?

197
00:20:53,180 --> 00:20:54,613
It's Kobayashi Daigo.

198
00:20:54,748 --> 00:20:56,045
Order his business cards right away.

199
00:20:56,417 --> 00:20:57,213
Got it.

200
00:20:57,818 --> 00:20:59,547
W... wait...

201
00:20:59,687 --> 00:21:02,554
We haven't discussed anything... salaries and other things...

202
00:21:02,690 --> 00:21:03,782
Oh, right.

203
00:21:04,858 --> 00:21:06,883
Let's start with one hand.

204
00:21:07,761 --> 00:21:08,386
"One hand"?

205
00:21:11,732 --> 00:21:13,063
50,000 yen?

206
00:21:13,434 --> 00:21:14,666
500,000 yen.

207
00:21:15,069 --> 00:21:16,231
500,000 yen?!

208
00:21:17,104 --> 00:21:17,729
Too little?

209
00:21:17,938 --> 00:21:19,633
Not at all, I can get that much?

210
00:21:19,773 --> 00:21:21,468
I don't mind paying you in cash, daily.

211
00:21:21,608 --> 00:21:24,509
No, wait, what kind of work will I...?

212
00:21:26,013 --> 00:21:27,913
Let's see...

213
00:21:28,682 --> 00:21:33,051
As my assistant at first.

214
00:21:33,921 --> 00:21:35,252
Exactly what...?

215
00:21:36,190 --> 00:21:37,316
To be exact...

216
00:21:38,459 --> 00:21:39,357
encoffining.

217
00:21:39,860 --> 00:21:40,986
<i>Encoffining?</i>

218
00:21:41,528 --> 00:21:44,326
A job that places the corpse into the coffin.

219
00:21:44,898 --> 00:21:46,729
It's starting to bloom!

220
00:21:47,968 --> 00:21:51,028
Corpse as in dead people?

221
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,533
You ask funny questions.

222
00:21:58,145 --> 00:22:02,411
No, uh, um...

223
00:22:02,549 --> 00:22:05,609
The job posting said helping out journeys.

224
00:22:05,753 --> 00:22:09,211
I assumed it was a travel agency...

225
00:22:09,490 --> 00:22:10,718
Oh, this is a misprint.

226
00:22:10,891 --> 00:22:11,858
Misprint?

227
00:22:12,326 --> 00:22:15,489
Not "helping out journeys", it's...

228
00:22:17,765 --> 00:22:19,630
"Helping out peaceful departure".

229
00:22:19,767 --> 00:22:20,934
Departure?

230
00:22:22,102 --> 00:22:26,565
So "NK" stands for "NouKan" (Encoffining).

231
00:22:28,909 --> 00:22:32,902
Anyway, it must be some kind of fate.
Just give it a try.

232
00:22:33,413 --> 00:22:36,173
You can quit if it doesn't suit you.

233
00:22:37,651 --> 00:22:38,913
This is for today.

234
00:22:39,286 --> 00:22:40,150
No, I can't...

235
00:22:40,287 --> 00:22:41,219
Don't worry!

236
00:22:41,355 --> 00:22:42,617
No...

237
00:23:03,110 --> 00:23:03,735
I'm back.

238
00:23:05,112 --> 00:23:07,103
Welcome back.

239
00:23:07,981 --> 00:23:08,675
Here.

240
00:23:09,116 --> 00:23:10,140
Where did you get this?

241
00:23:10,284 --> 00:23:12,975
You said you wanted to eat sukiyaki from here, right?

242
00:23:14,454 --> 00:23:15,853
Yonezawa-beef?

243
00:23:16,023 --> 00:23:16,990
The highest-grade sirloin.

244
00:23:17,124 --> 00:23:19,786
Wow! Was it expensive?

245
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,021
I got paid in advance.

246
00:23:22,129 --> 00:23:24,029
You got the job?

247
00:23:24,464 --> 00:23:25,590
Kind of, yes.

248
00:23:25,866 --> 00:23:28,096
Great! Let's celebrate today.

249
00:23:28,235 --> 00:23:29,259
Sure.

250
00:23:29,570 --> 00:23:31,094
So, what kind of job was it?

251
00:23:31,805 --> 00:23:32,897
Tour guide after all?

252
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:33,699
Not really...

253
00:23:35,008 --> 00:23:35,940
Sales?

254
00:23:39,079 --> 00:23:40,637
What's the matter?

255
00:23:42,549 --> 00:23:44,449
It wasn't a travel agency.

256
00:23:44,818 --> 00:23:46,217
Oh? What was it?

257
00:23:48,222 --> 00:23:50,083
Ceremonial event-related...

258
00:23:50,157 --> 00:23:51,886
Like a wedding hall?

259
00:23:52,025 --> 00:23:52,684
Yeah.

260
00:23:53,227 --> 00:23:56,526
They might make you play the cello again!

261
00:23:58,832 --> 00:24:00,800
I'll make sukiyaki right away.

262
00:24:01,835 --> 00:24:02,733
Okay.

263
00:24:03,737 --> 00:24:07,696
This is great! Looks tasty.

264
00:24:17,184 --> 00:24:20,381
I don't think I'll come back that late.

265
00:24:24,391 --> 00:24:25,153
Get going.

266
00:24:25,292 --> 00:24:26,156
Bye.

267
00:24:52,953 --> 00:24:53,851
Morning.

268
00:24:54,922 --> 00:24:56,355
Hello.

269
00:24:57,557 --> 00:24:59,889
Use the boss' table until the new one arrives.

270
00:25:06,133 --> 00:25:07,896
Your business cards are ready.

271
00:25:08,769 --> 00:25:10,134
No misprints.

272
00:25:29,756 --> 00:25:31,485
Are these that uncommon?

273
00:25:32,526 --> 00:25:34,153
This is my first time seeing a real one.

274
00:25:34,428 --> 00:25:35,122
First time?

275
00:25:35,262 --> 00:25:35,990
Yes.

276
00:25:36,363 --> 00:25:39,526
My grandparents passed away before I'd grown up,

277
00:25:39,666 --> 00:25:42,066
and my mother passed away while I was abroad.

278
00:25:42,202 --> 00:25:44,026
She was already in her grave when I got back.

279
00:25:44,137 --> 00:25:45,395
What about your father?

280
00:25:45,472 --> 00:25:48,236
He left home for another woman when I was 6.

281
00:25:52,379 --> 00:25:55,405
Your mother must have been lonely.

282
00:26:05,525 --> 00:26:06,617
But...

283
00:26:08,195 --> 00:26:10,929
I wonder if someone like me who has never even seen a dead body before...

284
00:26:11,064 --> 00:26:12,759
can really do this job?

285
00:26:12,899 --> 00:26:14,696
You'll get used to it!

286
00:26:16,903 --> 00:26:19,303
To dead bodies?

287
00:26:19,573 --> 00:26:20,301
Yeah.

288
00:26:21,641 --> 00:26:23,802
The weather is nice lately, so we're not very busy...

289
00:26:24,711 --> 00:26:26,941
but change of season...

290
00:26:27,748 --> 00:26:28,612
Do you need help?

291
00:26:30,350 --> 00:26:32,045
...will be very busy for us.

292
00:26:33,153 --> 00:26:34,484
Where does work come from?

293
00:26:34,654 --> 00:26:35,782
Funeral homes.

294
00:26:37,391 --> 00:26:38,380
Funeral homes?

295
00:26:38,759 --> 00:26:41,125
Yes. Encoffining...

296
00:26:41,261 --> 00:26:43,627
used to be done by family members.

297
00:26:43,764 --> 00:26:46,597
Eventually it was passed to funeral homes,

298
00:26:47,167 --> 00:26:50,625
then companies like ours appeared.

299
00:26:51,238 --> 00:26:54,901
In short, it's a super-niche industry.

300
00:26:55,409 --> 00:26:57,172
It's pretty heavy.

301
00:26:59,179 --> 00:27:00,407
There are many kinds of coffins.

302
00:27:01,214 --> 00:27:03,580
50000, 100000, 300000 yen.

303
00:27:04,051 --> 00:27:05,484
They differ by that much?

304
00:27:05,719 --> 00:27:10,588
The left one is plywood, the next one has metal fittings and carvings on both sides.

305
00:27:11,024 --> 00:27:13,754
And the most expensive one is solid cypress wood.

306
00:27:13,894 --> 00:27:17,295
Oh, the difference is in material and decoration.

307
00:27:17,431 --> 00:27:20,229
Yes, they all burn the same way.

308
00:27:20,367 --> 00:27:22,028
Same ashes.

309
00:27:22,369 --> 00:27:25,668
The last shopping of your life is done by others.

310
00:27:25,872 --> 00:27:26,839
Kind of ironic.

311
00:27:26,973 --> 00:27:27,769
Right.

312
00:27:32,579 --> 00:27:34,342
Yes, this is NK Agent.

313
00:27:35,749 --> 00:27:37,512
Yes, he's here.

314
00:27:38,885 --> 00:27:40,614
Yes, Minato Theater?

315
00:27:41,288 --> 00:27:43,381
Immediately? Okay.

316
00:27:45,258 --> 00:27:46,156
Is that the boss?

317
00:27:46,293 --> 00:27:47,282
A job.

318
00:27:49,930 --> 00:27:51,022
A job?

319
00:28:35,542 --> 00:28:36,839
Are you from NK?

320
00:28:37,144 --> 00:28:38,111
Yes.

321
00:28:38,345 --> 00:28:39,107
He's here.

322
00:28:40,714 --> 00:28:41,908
Oh, there he is.

323
00:28:46,853 --> 00:28:50,254
He's a newcomer to our company...

324
00:28:50,390 --> 00:28:51,049
Kobayashi.

325
00:28:51,191 --> 00:28:53,125
...his name is Kobayashi, the model for today.

326
00:28:53,293 --> 00:28:54,191
Good luck everyone.

327
00:28:54,528 --> 00:28:55,290
Model?

328
00:28:58,064 --> 00:29:01,227
We're going to film right after you finish changing.

329
00:29:01,368 --> 00:29:02,562
Thank you for your cooperation.

330
00:29:02,702 --> 00:29:05,603
Get changed and makeup over there.

331
00:29:05,972 --> 00:29:06,700
Makeup?

332
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:07,836
Yes.

333
00:29:09,976 --> 00:29:10,943
Boss...

334
00:29:11,511 --> 00:29:13,502
Don't worry. Go ahead.

335
00:29:13,647 --> 00:29:14,807
Okay.

336
00:29:19,252 --> 00:29:21,982
[ Encoffining Manual ]

337
00:29:23,924 --> 00:29:26,119
...first apply cotton stuffing and cleansing.

338
00:29:26,326 --> 00:29:29,818
Followed by...

339
00:29:30,230 --> 00:29:32,221
The model is coming out!

340
00:29:43,443 --> 00:29:44,842
Not bad.

341
00:29:45,412 --> 00:29:48,472
Um... who's going to see this video?

342
00:29:48,615 --> 00:29:50,048
Don't worry,

343
00:29:50,450 --> 00:29:54,887
it's a corporate DVD, so nobody will see it.

344
00:30:01,294 --> 00:30:02,921
In encoffining,

345
00:30:03,230 --> 00:30:07,758
we first perform cotton stuffing and cleansing.

346
00:30:08,535 --> 00:30:14,565
Cleansing symbolizes the ridding of this world's fatigue, pain, and lust...

347
00:30:14,874 --> 00:30:20,402
and also symbolizes the first bath for a new birth.

348
00:30:23,083 --> 00:30:27,019
Traditionally, a washtub was used for cleansing,

349
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,016
but for sanitary reasons,

350
00:30:30,323 --> 00:30:33,884
nowadays, we use sterilized cloths...

351
00:30:35,428 --> 00:30:36,617
to wipe...

352
00:30:40,233 --> 00:30:41,791
the body.

353
00:30:45,639 --> 00:30:49,405
Clothing ritual is performed to maintain the dignity of the deceased.

354
00:30:49,643 --> 00:30:53,602
Making sure the deceased's skin cannot be seen by the relatives...

355
00:30:53,747 --> 00:30:56,739
we perform it with utmost care.

356
00:31:06,026 --> 00:31:08,051
After the preparation,

357
00:31:08,361 --> 00:31:11,990
we shave the face before applying makeup.

358
00:31:12,432 --> 00:31:18,234
Males in particular experience shrinking of muscle and dry skin,

359
00:31:18,772 --> 00:31:21,400
it seems as if they have a long mustache,

360
00:31:22,375 --> 00:31:25,105
so we shave them thoroughly.

361
00:31:29,015 --> 00:31:33,039
The skin of the dead gets damaged easier than you might think.

362
00:31:33,353 --> 00:31:37,284
Sometimes the skin peels off just by touch.

363
00:31:39,125 --> 00:31:40,092
Therefore,

364
00:31:42,395 --> 00:31:46,491
we perform it with caution and care...

365
00:31:47,667 --> 00:31:48,224
Ow!

366
00:31:48,368 --> 00:31:49,130
What the...

367
00:31:49,302 --> 00:31:50,200
Ow, ow!!

368
00:31:50,537 --> 00:31:51,526
Uh, oh.

369
00:31:51,738 --> 00:31:55,438
Ow, it hurts, it hurts!

370
00:31:59,379 --> 00:32:00,471
Uh, oh...

371
00:32:01,981 --> 00:32:04,449
Ow, ow!

372
00:32:04,684 --> 00:32:06,447
Don't worry, don't worry.

373
00:32:06,820 --> 00:32:08,981
It's not so bad.

374
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:14,922
Welcome home.

375
00:32:15,061 --> 00:32:15,993
I'm home.

376
00:32:23,770 --> 00:32:24,664
What is it?

377
00:32:25,572 --> 00:32:27,239
What happened to your face?

378
00:32:28,908 --> 00:32:31,399
My boss pushed me while I was shaving.

379
00:32:32,245 --> 00:32:34,475
You were shaving at work?

380
00:32:35,115 --> 00:32:35,979
Yeah.

381
00:32:36,616 --> 00:32:39,517
You only use electric shavers at home...

382
00:32:40,387 --> 00:32:43,151
I had no choice, the boss ordered me to do it.

383
00:32:44,057 --> 00:32:46,355
Don't worry, it's not so bad.

384
00:32:46,726 --> 00:32:47,988
Weird company.

385
00:32:48,461 --> 00:32:49,450
No kidding.

386
00:32:49,596 --> 00:32:50,358
Weird...

387
00:32:50,530 --> 00:32:51,360
weird company.

388
00:32:59,305 --> 00:33:02,604
<i>The first job came without warning.</i>

389
00:33:06,479 --> 00:33:07,673
Um...

390
00:33:08,548 --> 00:33:10,709
what should I do?

391
00:33:12,886 --> 00:33:13,784
For today...

392
00:33:16,256 --> 00:33:18,121
you just have to watch.

393
00:33:18,491 --> 00:33:20,220
Okay.

394
00:33:20,894 --> 00:33:22,691
But man...

395
00:33:24,397 --> 00:33:26,228
we hit a bad one.

396
00:33:26,666 --> 00:33:29,794
Huh? What do you mean?

397
00:33:30,236 --> 00:33:31,362
Never mind.

398
00:33:33,773 --> 00:33:34,933
Well, you'll see.

399
00:33:35,074 --> 00:33:37,133
Don't scare me like that!

400
00:33:46,352 --> 00:33:47,717
Thank you for waiting.

401
00:33:47,854 --> 00:33:49,412
Thanks for coming.

402
00:33:49,789 --> 00:33:50,813
Where is the body?

403
00:33:52,258 --> 00:33:55,819
An old lady living by herself... dead for two weeks.

404
00:33:56,429 --> 00:33:58,989
The body is badly deteriorated. Be careful.

405
00:33:59,499 --> 00:34:00,397
See you later.

406
00:34:04,437 --> 00:34:05,426
Who is he?

407
00:34:06,773 --> 00:34:10,140
From the funeral home.
Our employer.

408
00:34:12,679 --> 00:34:15,409
Let's get started.

409
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:22,087
It stinks!

410
00:34:24,390 --> 00:34:25,914
Ugh.

411
00:34:46,279 --> 00:34:46,904
This way.

412
00:34:47,046 --> 00:34:47,774
Eh?

413
00:34:55,855 --> 00:34:57,152
Help out a little.

414
00:34:57,857 --> 00:34:58,551
Yes.

415
00:35:16,075 --> 00:35:17,037
Hold her feet.

416
00:35:20,113 --> 00:35:20,938
Her feet!

417
00:35:22,415 --> 00:35:23,274
Yes.

418
00:35:30,089 --> 00:35:32,387
You said I only have to watch...

419
00:35:32,692 --> 00:35:35,092
Slowly... gently...

420
00:35:39,566 --> 00:35:40,498
Come on, hold them!

421
00:35:41,601 --> 00:35:42,431
Yes.

422
00:35:55,548 --> 00:35:58,176
Wait, wait...

423
00:36:15,168 --> 00:36:16,692
You can go home for today.

424
00:36:22,075 --> 00:36:25,772
It was a bit too intense for the first job.

425
00:36:44,731 --> 00:36:48,565
Really? Let's go today.
- Yeah sure!

426
00:36:58,645 --> 00:37:00,909
Hey, did you eat something weird?

427
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:01,808
No.

428
00:37:01,948 --> 00:37:03,245
Something smells.

429
00:37:03,416 --> 00:37:04,474
Must be your scarf!

430
00:37:04,617 --> 00:37:06,312
No way!

431
00:37:13,326 --> 00:37:15,590
That guy wearing black, he smells!

432
00:37:26,039 --> 00:37:30,408
Ah! It's still here!

433
00:37:50,029 --> 00:37:50,996
Leave it over there.

434
00:37:52,331 --> 00:37:53,195
Yes.

435
00:37:57,136 --> 00:37:58,160
300 yen.

436
00:37:58,404 --> 00:37:59,928
Okay. Thanks.

437
00:38:00,473 --> 00:38:01,770
Towels for 100 yen.

438
00:38:02,241 --> 00:38:02,798
Okay.

439
00:38:39,112 --> 00:38:41,873
You can get a lot of money for this place right now.

440
00:38:42,782 --> 00:38:45,080
I refuse to quit.

441
00:38:45,251 --> 00:38:47,048
Leave already.

442
00:38:47,687 --> 00:38:49,587
I just want the best for you, mother.

443
00:38:49,722 --> 00:38:52,156
You talk just like a civil servant!

444
00:38:52,458 --> 00:38:55,421
I'm not so old that you need to worry about me!

445
00:38:55,695 --> 00:38:57,822
Right? Shiori?

446
00:38:58,364 --> 00:39:01,356
Can I come for the big bath again?

447
00:39:01,534 --> 00:39:03,263
Yes, of course!

448
00:39:03,402 --> 00:39:04,994
For you,

449
00:39:05,138 --> 00:39:09,165
grandma will work hard!

450
00:39:10,209 --> 00:39:11,335
Daigo...

451
00:39:11,978 --> 00:39:12,910
Yamashita.

452
00:39:13,379 --> 00:39:16,212
When did you come back? You could've at least contacted me!

453
00:39:16,382 --> 00:39:19,078
Sorry, I've been busy.

454
00:39:20,319 --> 00:39:25,279
Oh! You're Dai from Kobayashi's café.

455
00:39:25,658 --> 00:39:27,148
Yes, it's been a long time.

456
00:39:27,293 --> 00:39:31,286
It sure has been!

457
00:39:31,798 --> 00:39:35,256
I hear you have an amazing job!

458
00:39:35,635 --> 00:39:37,865
Huh? Well... yes...

459
00:39:38,838 --> 00:39:40,965
What is that instrument called?

460
00:39:41,107 --> 00:39:43,302
Cello, that monster-sized violin.

461
00:39:43,442 --> 00:39:45,410
Right, cello!

462
00:39:45,778 --> 00:39:48,076
He's a great man.

463
00:39:48,247 --> 00:39:51,444
He plays an instrument called cello in Tokyo!

464
00:39:51,584 --> 00:39:52,778
Wow!

465
00:39:56,489 --> 00:40:00,220
If only my son was as talented as he is!

466
00:40:00,426 --> 00:40:01,916
Mom...

467
00:40:02,695 --> 00:40:05,664
Sorry, we're having a little argument here.
Next time...

468
00:40:05,798 --> 00:40:06,765
Sure, next time.

469
00:40:07,466 --> 00:40:09,593
Bring your wife here next time.

470
00:40:09,769 --> 00:40:10,633
You're married, right?

471
00:40:10,770 --> 00:40:11,566
Yes.

472
00:40:11,704 --> 00:40:14,002
This place is very peaceful without this fool.

473
00:40:14,540 --> 00:40:16,371
Which fool gave birth to this fool?

474
00:40:16,509 --> 00:40:19,478
Anyway, I have no intention of selling this place!

475
00:40:19,612 --> 00:40:22,581
Oh, I got it!

476
00:40:23,449 --> 00:40:24,074
Did you figure it out?

477
00:40:24,217 --> 00:40:27,483
Yes, I finally figured it out.

478
00:40:56,415 --> 00:40:57,439
Something happen at work?

479
00:40:58,551 --> 00:40:59,381
No.

480
00:41:01,420 --> 00:41:02,284
Let's eat!

481
00:41:02,421 --> 00:41:03,445
Yeah.

482
00:41:03,856 --> 00:41:05,551
Let's eat...

483
00:41:07,727 --> 00:41:10,662
Our neighbor gave it to me.

484
00:41:10,830 --> 00:41:11,353
Oh.

485
00:41:11,497 --> 00:41:14,591
It was just slaughtered this morning, so it's really fresh!

486
00:41:14,734 --> 00:41:16,725
She said we can even eat it raw!

487
00:41:28,012 --> 00:41:29,879
Maybe we should wait a little longer.

488
00:41:35,288 --> 00:41:36,380
Hey...

489
00:41:38,925 --> 00:41:39,983
Are you okay?

490
00:41:47,733 --> 00:41:49,223
Are you alright?

491
00:41:57,743 --> 00:41:59,005
What's wrong?

492
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:15,720
What's wrong?

493
00:42:33,813 --> 00:42:36,213
Dai, you're acting strange...

494
00:42:42,621 --> 00:42:45,715
Hey, come on, Dai...

495
00:42:46,926 --> 00:42:50,259
Hey, you're embarrassing me.

496
00:42:50,863 --> 00:42:53,388
Not here...

497
00:42:59,872 --> 00:43:00,930
Dai?

498
00:43:10,449 --> 00:43:11,780
Hey, wait...

499
00:43:12,385 --> 00:43:13,352
Mika...

500
00:43:16,222 --> 00:43:17,154
Mika...

501
00:43:36,809 --> 00:43:38,676
<i>What exactly...</i>

502
00:43:40,046 --> 00:43:42,607
<i>am I being tested for?</i>

503
00:43:44,984 --> 00:43:48,514
<i>Is this my punishment for not seeing my mother off?</i>

504
00:43:49,922 --> 00:43:52,456
<i>What will happen to me?</i>

505
00:43:56,929 --> 00:44:02,526
<i>Strangely, thinking about it made me want to play the cello.</i>

506
00:44:04,170 --> 00:44:09,733
<i>I simply wanted to play the cello while reminiscing my past.</i>

507
00:44:10,443 --> 00:44:13,571
It's so small...

508
00:48:58,330 --> 00:48:59,695
Salmon?

509
00:49:00,966 --> 00:49:02,627
Ah, yes.

510
00:49:06,905 --> 00:49:11,103
They're right by the rocks... over there.

511
00:49:11,977 --> 00:49:15,743
Oh! Go for it!

512
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:25,021
It's kind of sad... to climb only to die.

513
00:49:26,992 --> 00:49:29,952
Why work so hard if you're going to die anyway?

514
00:49:32,331 --> 00:49:34,561
I'm sure they want to go back...

515
00:49:36,034 --> 00:49:37,867
to their birthplace.

516
00:50:12,137 --> 00:50:14,901
Let's go for lunch. Lunch.

517
00:50:19,878 --> 00:50:21,368
It's an order from your boss.

518
00:50:25,651 --> 00:50:27,283
Is this a coincidence?

519
00:50:27,553 --> 00:50:28,276
Huh?

520
00:50:28,487 --> 00:50:30,482
That you happened to pass through here.

521
00:50:34,092 --> 00:50:35,486
It's fate.

522
00:50:36,161 --> 00:50:37,726
There's no such thing...

523
00:50:40,132 --> 00:50:43,363
This is your god-given job.

524
00:50:46,171 --> 00:50:47,798
Don't be ridiculous!

525
00:50:57,983 --> 00:51:01,942
I'm sorry, sorry, I apologize.

526
00:51:10,195 --> 00:51:11,719
They're angry!

527
00:51:13,499 --> 00:51:15,023
Come on, Mr. Sasaki!

528
00:51:15,167 --> 00:51:16,156
Sorry.

529
00:51:18,403 --> 00:51:19,495
You're late.

530
00:51:21,306 --> 00:51:22,671
It's 5 minutes past already!

531
00:51:22,808 --> 00:51:24,070
I apologize.

532
00:51:24,376 --> 00:51:27,741
You people make a living from the dead.

533
00:51:27,779 --> 00:51:28,768
Brother...

534
00:51:29,515 --> 00:51:30,573
Hurry up, damn it.

535
00:51:33,785 --> 00:51:35,776
I sincerely apologize.

536
00:54:43,842 --> 00:54:47,203
Is there a lipstick your wife liked to use?

537
00:54:53,218 --> 00:54:54,048
What?

538
00:55:11,369 --> 00:55:13,662
<i>To revive a cold body,</i>

539
00:55:14,806 --> 00:55:16,801
<i>and grant eternal beauty.</i>

540
00:55:18,176 --> 00:55:23,136
<i>It was calm and precise.</i>

541
00:55:24,015 --> 00:55:26,847
<i>And more than anything, it was filled with affection.</i>

542
00:55:29,087 --> 00:55:33,045
<i>To be present at the last farewell, and send off the deceased.</i>

543
00:55:34,259 --> 00:55:40,391
<i>It was tranquil, and every action seemed elegant.</i>

544
00:55:48,573 --> 00:55:50,063
Thank you very much.

545
00:55:58,950 --> 00:56:01,783
Please allow me to close the lid.

546
00:56:18,069 --> 00:56:19,400
Naomi...

547
00:56:38,423 --> 00:56:39,720
Naomi...

548
00:56:59,344 --> 00:57:00,311
Excuse me...

549
00:57:03,181 --> 00:57:06,241
I'm sorry about earlier today.

550
00:57:06,384 --> 00:57:08,579
No, it's our fault.

551
00:57:09,788 --> 00:57:12,655
Please take these.

552
00:57:13,725 --> 00:57:15,090
Thank you.

553
00:57:16,528 --> 00:57:18,195
That was...

554
00:57:19,397 --> 00:57:23,661
the most beautiful she's ever been.

555
00:57:25,537 --> 00:57:28,472
Thank you so much.

556
00:58:09,014 --> 00:58:10,003
It's nothing.

557
00:58:44,382 --> 00:58:45,906
Welcome.

558
00:58:48,620 --> 00:58:49,780
Good evening.

559
00:58:51,623 --> 00:58:52,783
Good evening.

560
00:58:54,592 --> 00:58:57,493
Ah! Don't tell me...

561
00:58:57,629 --> 00:58:59,563
Yes, she's my wife.

562
00:59:00,231 --> 00:59:01,858
Wow!

563
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:03,297
Nice to meet you.

564
00:59:04,469 --> 00:59:06,528
You've caught a pretty one!

565
00:59:06,671 --> 00:59:08,901
It's not a big deal!

566
00:59:11,176 --> 00:59:14,771
Take your time and warm up.

567
00:59:14,980 --> 00:59:17,574
Yes, thank you.

568
00:59:21,519 --> 00:59:22,645
Good evening.

569
00:59:26,024 --> 00:59:27,616
Oh, hello.

570
00:59:29,761 --> 00:59:30,887
Do you always come here?

571
00:59:31,029 --> 00:59:34,192
I've been coming here for more than 50 years.

572
00:59:34,332 --> 00:59:39,395
Oh! Maybe I've seen you before...

573
00:59:41,506 --> 00:59:44,236
Hot baths like this are pretty nice too.

574
00:59:44,442 --> 00:59:47,969
They use groundwater heated by firewood.

575
00:59:49,014 --> 00:59:50,811
The water feels soft.

576
00:59:51,649 --> 00:59:55,107
That's why it doesn't sting even though it's hot.

577
00:59:55,954 --> 00:59:57,421
I see.

578
00:59:57,822 --> 01:00:00,916
It's the best bath house in Japan!

579
01:00:01,059 --> 01:00:01,787
Right.

580
01:00:08,199 --> 01:00:10,064
See you again, Tsuyako.

581
01:00:10,568 --> 01:00:12,695
Thank you, come again.

582
01:00:18,009 --> 01:00:19,601
Would you like me to help?

583
01:00:20,145 --> 01:00:23,478
It's bad karma to get help from the customer!

584
01:00:33,324 --> 01:00:35,451
You do everything by yourself?

585
01:00:35,660 --> 01:00:39,357
Yes, my husband died a long time ago.

586
01:00:40,065 --> 01:00:41,896
My son who works at a government office

587
01:00:42,167 --> 01:00:44,635
tells me I should sell this place so they can build a condo here...

588
01:00:44,836 --> 01:00:47,999
but my current customers would be in a fix.

589
01:00:48,506 --> 01:00:50,371
As long as I'm still healthy...

590
01:00:51,009 --> 01:00:53,239
Come on, you're still young.

591
01:00:54,345 --> 01:00:55,842
Give him your support.

592
01:00:56,347 --> 01:00:57,006
What?

593
01:00:59,517 --> 01:01:02,315
Dai is too kind.

594
01:01:03,021 --> 01:01:05,819
He keeps everything to himself.

595
01:01:06,758 --> 01:01:08,658
When his parents split up, too...

596
01:01:08,893 --> 01:01:12,158
He never cried in front of his mother.

597
01:01:13,598 --> 01:01:17,762
He cried when he was alone in the bath.

598
01:01:18,536 --> 01:01:23,337
So hard his shoulders shook from crying.

599
01:01:25,810 --> 01:01:29,769
He's like that sometimes. Please be understanding.

600
01:01:32,417 --> 01:01:33,406
Yes.

601
01:01:39,757 --> 01:01:41,190
How's the water today?

602
01:01:42,594 --> 01:01:44,755
Hmm... so-so.

603
01:01:44,896 --> 01:01:46,295
Oh, shush!

604
01:01:46,564 --> 01:01:48,862
That's great. It looks good on you.

605
01:01:54,973 --> 01:01:57,965
It's all white!

606
01:01:58,743 --> 01:02:01,712
It's going to get cold starting tomorrow!
Give it to me.

607
01:02:01,846 --> 01:02:03,108
Thanks.

608
01:02:03,982 --> 01:02:06,075
Hey, wanna go for a drink?

609
01:02:07,252 --> 01:02:09,311
Oh, right! I know a nice bar.

610
01:02:09,454 --> 01:02:11,115
Really? Let's go!

611
01:02:11,489 --> 01:02:12,387
(With dialect) "Let's go".

612
01:02:12,624 --> 01:02:13,420
Let's go?

613
01:02:13,591 --> 01:02:15,183
Let's go.

614
01:02:15,326 --> 01:02:16,350
Let's go!

615
01:02:34,846 --> 01:02:35,938
It's good!

616
01:02:36,114 --> 01:02:38,443
It's been a long time since we've drunk together like this.

617
01:02:40,051 --> 01:02:42,918
It's like a scene from an enka (traditional Japanese song).

618
01:02:55,133 --> 01:02:57,829
Your mother listened to this kind of music?

619
01:02:58,703 --> 01:03:00,193
They must all be my father's.

620
01:03:01,239 --> 01:03:03,332
Oh, right.

621
01:03:03,775 --> 01:03:07,005
It started out as your father's café.

622
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:10,907
I don't even want to think about him.

623
01:03:11,049 --> 01:03:13,517
Actually, I don't even remember his face.

624
01:03:15,386 --> 01:03:17,286
Don't you want to see him?

625
01:03:18,356 --> 01:03:19,516
Nope.

626
01:03:23,027 --> 01:03:27,293
But... if I did...

627
01:03:27,999 --> 01:03:28,988
If you met him?

628
01:03:31,903 --> 01:03:33,192
I'd knock him out.

629
01:04:15,780 --> 01:04:17,607
It's my father's favorite.

630
01:04:29,826 --> 01:04:32,092
I think...

631
01:04:33,965 --> 01:04:39,756
your mom loved your dad the whole time.

632
01:04:44,273 --> 01:04:45,933
No way.

633
01:04:46,744 --> 01:04:49,877
Otherwise she would've thrown out all the records.

634
01:04:52,183 --> 01:04:54,743
She wouldn't have sorted them.

635
01:05:23,981 --> 01:05:24,777
Yes?

636
01:05:25,883 --> 01:05:27,578
<i>I want you to go right away.</i>

637
01:05:27,719 --> 01:05:29,914
What? Now?

638
01:05:30,054 --> 01:05:33,820
Yes, someone hanged himself in the Star Hotel by the station.

639
01:05:35,560 --> 01:05:37,289
What about the boss?

640
01:05:37,428 --> 01:05:41,762
He just left for another client.

641
01:05:42,100 --> 01:05:44,762
Please go by yourself today.
Okay?

642
01:05:45,803 --> 01:05:47,771
Okay.

643
01:06:32,417 --> 01:06:33,384
Have a good day.

644
01:06:33,518 --> 01:06:34,644
Thanks.

645
01:06:54,071 --> 01:06:54,901
Good morning.

646
01:06:55,039 --> 01:06:57,530
Morning. Thanks for last night.

647
01:06:59,677 --> 01:07:03,169
The police officer was impressed.
Because of your young age.

648
01:07:03,381 --> 01:07:06,248
I gave it everything I've got.

649
01:07:06,384 --> 01:07:07,715
I see.

650
01:07:09,454 --> 01:07:11,081
It's really cold today.

651
01:07:11,222 --> 01:07:12,052
Yeah.

652
01:07:15,526 --> 01:07:16,220
Here.

653
01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:17,952
Thank you.

654
01:07:18,095 --> 01:07:20,359
Bloodyshot eyes! Didn't get any sleep?

655
01:07:22,066 --> 01:07:24,557
This job is mentally draining.

656
01:07:30,241 --> 01:07:33,210
How did you end up in this job, Ms. Uemura?

657
01:07:35,947 --> 01:07:37,244
Thanks for the tea.

658
01:07:37,748 --> 01:07:41,548
A lot happened when I was young.

659
01:07:42,186 --> 01:07:44,086
I couldn't stay over there...

660
01:07:44,622 --> 01:07:45,452
Where?

661
01:07:46,023 --> 01:07:47,183
Hokkaido.

662
01:07:49,494 --> 01:07:52,395
None of my past jobs lasted.

663
01:07:53,297 --> 01:07:56,460
I just happened to end up in a café in this town.

664
01:07:59,136 --> 01:08:03,004
But the owner had a cerebral hemorrhage...

665
01:08:03,841 --> 01:08:05,570
and died all of a sudden!

666
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:11,378
Then, our boss came...

667
01:08:13,618 --> 01:08:18,077
That was when I witnessed encoffining for the first time.

668
01:08:19,123 --> 01:08:22,889
Made me think...

669
01:08:23,027 --> 01:08:26,021
when I die, I want this person to do it for me.

670
01:08:26,964 --> 01:08:31,958
He's completely different from others.

671
01:08:35,239 --> 01:08:37,332
That's how I ended up here.

672
01:08:41,178 --> 01:08:43,669
Fate plays funny tricks on people.

673
01:08:44,549 --> 01:08:46,449
Never know what'll happen.

674
01:08:48,519 --> 01:08:49,952
You're right.

675
01:08:51,589 --> 01:08:52,613
Tastes great.

676
01:09:00,031 --> 01:09:01,328
Hey, Yamashita.

677
01:09:05,570 --> 01:09:06,594
Is he a friend of yours?

678
01:09:07,538 --> 01:09:08,562
Good afternoon.

679
01:09:08,706 --> 01:09:09,263
Good afternoon.

680
01:09:09,407 --> 01:09:11,034
You don't have to greet him.

681
01:09:12,243 --> 01:09:13,210
Honey...

682
01:09:13,511 --> 01:09:15,706
Go on. I'll catch up.

683
01:09:23,554 --> 01:09:25,482
There's a rumor going around.

684
01:09:26,357 --> 01:09:27,153
About what?

685
01:09:29,493 --> 01:09:33,293
It's none of my business, but find a proper job!

686
01:09:38,536 --> 01:09:41,369
Let's go. Come.

687
01:09:55,252 --> 01:09:56,480
I'm home.

688
01:10:07,832 --> 01:10:08,662
Mika?

689
01:10:15,272 --> 01:10:16,239
Mika...

690
01:10:20,311 --> 01:10:21,369
What's wrong?

691
01:10:26,384 --> 01:10:31,384
<i>...make sure the relatives cannot see the cotton stuffing taking place...</i>

692
01:10:31,922 --> 01:10:35,358
<i>At times, we may need to stuff the anus as well.</i>

693
01:10:36,327 --> 01:10:38,495
<i>Roll up the cotton like this, and...</i>

694
01:10:40,064 --> 01:10:47,368
<i>push in all the way inside the anus to prevent an outflow of body fluid.</i>

695
01:10:53,177 --> 01:10:55,202
What's this?

696
01:10:58,516 --> 01:10:59,813
You looked through my desk without my permission?

697
01:10:59,950 --> 01:11:01,747
That's not the issue.

698
01:11:03,821 --> 01:11:06,984
I just happened to be a model for this...

699
01:11:07,124 --> 01:11:10,389
I found out about your job too.

700
01:11:15,266 --> 01:11:17,764
So... what?

701
01:11:22,773 --> 01:11:24,900
Why didn't you tell me?

702
01:11:25,309 --> 01:11:26,469
You would've been against it...

703
01:11:26,610 --> 01:11:30,171
Of course! Doing this kind of job...

704
01:11:31,315 --> 01:11:33,249
aren't you ashamed of it?

705
01:11:35,853 --> 01:11:37,480
Why should I be?

706
01:11:38,689 --> 01:11:40,748
Because I touch dead people every day?

707
01:11:42,460 --> 01:11:45,293
I just want you to have a normal job.

708
01:11:45,463 --> 01:11:46,760
What's normal?

709
01:11:48,632 --> 01:11:50,327
Everyone dies.

710
01:11:51,001 --> 01:11:52,764
I'll eventually die, and so will you.

711
01:11:54,638 --> 01:11:55,627
Death itself is normal.

712
01:11:55,806 --> 01:11:59,603
I don't care about the philosophy of it!
Just quit the job now.

713
01:12:01,078 --> 01:12:02,236
Please.

714
01:12:10,154 --> 01:12:14,554
I've never complained until now.

715
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:18,492
When you wanted to quit the cello...

716
01:12:19,430 --> 01:12:21,928
and when you said you wanted to come back to the countryside...

717
01:12:22,867 --> 01:12:25,160
I followed you with a smile.

718
01:12:28,038 --> 01:12:32,834
Of course, I was actually sad.

719
01:12:36,380 --> 01:12:37,672
But...

720
01:12:40,251 --> 01:12:42,248
because I love you...

721
01:12:45,956 --> 01:12:47,316
So please...

722
01:12:49,693 --> 01:12:51,793
just this once,

723
01:12:53,631 --> 01:12:55,731
do what I ask.

724
01:13:06,143 --> 01:13:09,269
And if I said no?

725
01:13:17,988 --> 01:13:20,418
Can you work in this job for the rest of your life?

726
01:13:35,439 --> 01:13:37,433
I'm going back to my parents' home.

727
01:13:38,075 --> 01:13:39,472
Come and get me after you quit your job.

728
01:13:39,510 --> 01:13:40,477
Mika...

729
01:13:40,611 --> 01:13:42,078
Don't touch me!

730
01:13:42,646 --> 01:13:43,813
Filthy!

731
01:14:32,058 --> 01:14:33,082
It's wrong.

732
01:14:35,295 --> 01:14:36,159
Huh?

733
01:14:37,464 --> 01:14:41,059
My daughter didn't look like this.

734
01:14:44,271 --> 01:14:46,735
Her hair color is wrong...

735
01:14:48,341 --> 01:14:49,672
it's all wrong!

736
01:14:50,243 --> 01:14:52,074
<i>That's how she look like!</i>

737
01:14:53,814 --> 01:14:55,140
What are you doing?!

738
01:14:57,684 --> 01:14:59,242
It's all wrong.

739
01:15:01,888 --> 01:15:03,116
Redo it.

740
01:15:04,958 --> 01:15:05,920
Yes.

741
01:15:06,993 --> 01:15:09,689
Why are you saying this now?

742
01:15:11,164 --> 01:15:13,559
This only happened...

743
01:15:13,934 --> 01:15:16,830
because you didn't raise her properly!

744
01:15:21,074 --> 01:15:23,099
You don't have to say it like that.

745
01:15:23,243 --> 01:15:24,642
What did you say?

746
01:15:25,078 --> 01:15:29,641
You also never paid any attention to her.

747
01:15:29,749 --> 01:15:31,273
Who the hell do you think you are?

748
01:15:32,152 --> 01:15:35,087
<i>You got her on the damn bike,</i>

749
01:15:35,222 --> 01:15:38,521
<i>and you ended up surviving!
Aren't you ashamed?</i>

750
01:15:38,658 --> 01:15:39,381
Stop.

751
01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:41,787
Stop, stop.

752
01:15:43,830 --> 01:15:44,797
It's you!

753
01:15:47,033 --> 01:15:48,257
Leave.

754
01:15:49,703 --> 01:15:53,002
It doesn't change the fact that it's your fault Miyuki died.

755
01:15:55,775 --> 01:15:59,404
Can you make up for it?

756
01:16:02,682 --> 01:16:07,278
Can you take that guy's job for rest of your life and make up for it?

757
01:16:11,591 --> 01:16:12,922
I'm sorry.

758
01:16:15,862 --> 01:16:17,261
I'm sorry!

759
01:16:20,867 --> 01:16:23,927
The boss will be sad to hear that.

760
01:16:26,306 --> 01:16:26,897
What?

761
01:16:27,040 --> 01:16:29,167
He really liked you.

762
01:16:30,577 --> 01:16:31,373
He did?

763
01:16:31,511 --> 01:16:34,674
Yeah! You're our first ever employee!

764
01:16:35,749 --> 01:16:38,274
The interview was very simple despite that.

765
01:16:38,418 --> 01:16:40,443
He always acts on his instincts!

766
01:16:40,787 --> 01:16:43,217
He said he felt something in you.

767
01:16:46,259 --> 01:16:47,954
But still...

768
01:16:49,763 --> 01:16:53,631
Sorry, but please talk to him in person if you want to quit.

769
01:16:54,401 --> 01:16:55,800
He's upstairs.

770
01:17:23,096 --> 01:17:24,324
Excuse me.

771
01:17:27,734 --> 01:17:28,758
Come on in.

772
01:17:29,302 --> 01:17:30,030
Okay.

773
01:17:43,883 --> 01:17:45,214
What have you been eating?

774
01:17:46,786 --> 01:17:47,514
What?

775
01:17:49,956 --> 01:17:52,686
Your wife hasn't come back yet, right?

776
01:17:53,560 --> 01:17:54,788
Yes...

777
01:17:57,163 --> 01:17:58,255
Eat here.

778
01:17:59,099 --> 01:18:01,033
It's probably better than your wife's cooking.

779
01:18:07,741 --> 01:18:10,209
Let's eat.

780
01:18:15,682 --> 01:18:16,649
What's this?

781
01:18:17,584 --> 01:18:18,812
Blowfish milt.

782
01:18:20,086 --> 01:18:22,077
It's best grilled, with salt.

783
01:18:45,712 --> 01:18:46,879
That's my wife.

784
01:18:48,415 --> 01:18:52,784
Passed away 9 years ago.

785
01:18:59,159 --> 01:19:02,192
All married couples are eventually separated by death,

786
01:19:03,897 --> 01:19:05,826
but it's tough being the one left behind.

787
01:19:13,373 --> 01:19:17,469
I dressed her up, and sent her away.

788
01:19:24,317 --> 01:19:26,007
My very first client.

789
01:19:31,491 --> 01:19:33,618
I've been working in this business ever since.

790
01:19:36,763 --> 01:19:38,191
This too...

791
01:19:44,504 --> 01:19:48,406
This is a corpse too.

792
01:19:55,415 --> 01:19:58,948
The living eat the living to live.
Right?

793
01:20:00,854 --> 01:20:02,544
These plants are an exception.

794
01:20:09,929 --> 01:20:12,429
You have to eat if you don't want to die.

795
01:20:13,733 --> 01:20:16,862
If you're going to eat, it might as well taste good.

796
01:20:35,088 --> 01:20:36,047
Tasty, isn't it?

797
01:20:37,323 --> 01:20:38,751
It sure is.

798
01:20:39,159 --> 01:20:43,289
Yeah it is... sadly.

799
01:21:02,415 --> 01:21:05,816
<i>It's almost two weeks since I returned to Yamagata from Tokyo.</i>

800
01:21:06,653 --> 01:21:10,842
<i>Now that I think of it, I've led such an unremarkable life.</i>

801
01:21:15,261 --> 01:21:20,164
<i>Will I really be able to make a living with this job?</i>

802
01:21:27,006 --> 01:21:28,064
Do you want to try?

803
01:21:32,579 --> 01:21:33,409
Yes.

804
01:22:41,981 --> 01:22:44,643
Slowly, lower from the head.

805
01:22:57,964 --> 01:22:58,988
Tomeo...

806
01:23:12,045 --> 01:23:13,535
Good-bye.

807
01:23:18,484 --> 01:23:20,213
Thank you.

808
01:23:23,056 --> 01:23:28,585
We've been doing nothing but argue since Tomeo started dressing up like that...

809
01:23:29,896 --> 01:23:33,093
I haven't looked straight into his face for a long time.

810
01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:37,868
But... seeing him smile made me think...

811
01:23:38,905 --> 01:23:42,306
ah... he really is my child.

812
01:23:43,843 --> 01:23:45,868
Even if he looks like a girl...

813
01:23:46,446 --> 01:23:50,473
he really is my child!

814
01:23:56,589 --> 01:24:00,582
Thank you so much!

815
01:24:27,420 --> 01:24:28,444
Tastes great!

816
01:24:48,007 --> 01:24:49,265
Is it tasty?

817
01:24:52,345 --> 01:24:53,807
...Sadly.

818
01:24:59,384 --> 01:25:01,514
Did you bring the cello?

819
01:25:02,922 --> 01:25:05,083
Really? I want to hear!

820
01:25:05,491 --> 01:25:06,719
I'll play a little bit.

821
01:25:12,031 --> 01:25:14,556
It's my first time listening to a cello live.

822
01:25:15,334 --> 01:25:17,268
You were in an orchestra too, right?

823
01:25:17,403 --> 01:25:19,394
Yes, but it went out of business right away.

824
01:25:19,539 --> 01:25:21,131
How long have you been playing?

825
01:25:22,442 --> 01:25:23,500
Ever since I was in kindergarten.

826
01:25:23,643 --> 01:25:25,543
Wow, for that long?

827
01:25:25,678 --> 01:25:28,238
This is also a children's cello...

828
01:25:28,981 --> 01:25:31,609
my father forced me to learn to play this.

829
01:25:31,784 --> 01:25:33,078
Your father had fine taste.

830
01:25:33,119 --> 01:25:34,916
He's the worst father ever.

831
01:25:35,455 --> 01:25:37,685
He ran a small café,

832
01:25:37,824 --> 01:25:40,156
but he ran away with a waitress, never came back.

833
01:25:40,293 --> 01:25:41,920
He really was the worst father.

834
01:25:42,628 --> 01:25:44,493
I wonder what he's doing now.

835
01:25:44,964 --> 01:25:47,524
Who knows, probably already dead.

836
01:25:52,405 --> 01:25:55,033
Well, what should I play?

837
01:25:56,309 --> 01:25:58,243
Let's see...

838
01:25:58,377 --> 01:25:59,867
something Christmas-y.

839
01:26:00,646 --> 01:26:01,442
Yeah.

840
01:26:04,817 --> 01:26:08,719
Uh... will different religions bother you?

841
01:26:08,855 --> 01:26:10,220
Don't worry.

842
01:26:10,590 --> 01:26:13,024
Buddhism, Christian, Islam, Hindu...

843
01:26:13,159 --> 01:26:14,656
we handle all religions here.

844
01:26:16,229 --> 01:26:17,457
Then,

845
01:26:18,564 --> 01:26:21,465
for the Holy Night...

846
01:27:53,993 --> 01:27:56,223
<i>Yes, this is NK Agent.</i>

847
01:27:56,662 --> 01:27:58,721
<i>Thank you always for your business.</i>

848
01:27:59,966 --> 01:28:01,126
<i>Yes, tomorrow.</i>

849
01:28:01,801 --> 01:28:03,325
<i>The name of the deceased is...</i>

850
01:28:03,669 --> 01:28:06,570
I will now prepare her for her last journey.

851
01:28:06,973 --> 01:28:10,136
Gently cover her toes...

852
01:28:10,276 --> 01:28:11,174
Um...

853
01:28:14,013 --> 01:28:17,310
My grandma said she wanted to wear loose socks.

854
01:28:19,050 --> 01:28:20,018
Okay.

855
01:28:24,690 --> 01:28:25,486
Grandma,

856
01:28:28,628 --> 01:28:30,858
bye-bye.

857
01:28:31,631 --> 01:28:34,099
Thank you for everything, grandma.

858
01:28:41,340 --> 01:28:43,365
...in the name of Jesus Christ...

859
01:28:43,643 --> 01:28:46,441
Amen.

860
01:29:31,290 --> 01:29:33,554
Boss has aged a lot!

861
01:30:53,639 --> 01:30:56,699
Thank you, honey.

862
01:31:58,070 --> 01:31:59,128
Mika!

863
01:32:03,209 --> 01:32:05,575
You haven't been cleaning this place?

864
01:32:06,912 --> 01:32:07,908
Occasionally.

865
01:32:08,214 --> 01:32:11,149
You're lying, you haven't even cleaned once.

866
01:32:12,885 --> 01:32:14,250
I cleaned twice.

867
01:32:16,922 --> 01:32:18,549
That's not "occasionally".

868
01:32:23,362 --> 01:32:26,593
You're a mess without me, as I thought.

869
01:32:32,371 --> 01:32:33,836
I have something to report too.

870
01:32:34,940 --> 01:32:35,936
What is it?

871
01:32:40,112 --> 01:32:41,739
I'm pregnant.

872
01:32:44,884 --> 01:32:46,283
Wow...

873
01:32:47,386 --> 01:32:49,083
I'm going to be a father?

874
01:32:57,930 --> 01:33:02,026
So please start getting your life together.

875
01:33:05,971 --> 01:33:10,135
Can you proudly tell your child about your job?

876
01:33:13,579 --> 01:33:16,577
I'm sure it'll lead to bullying.

877
01:33:17,917 --> 01:33:21,846
I don't care about money. Let's just live happily together.

878
01:33:34,967 --> 01:33:37,401
Yes, hello?

879
01:33:38,003 --> 01:33:40,369
What? Now?

880
01:33:42,508 --> 01:33:43,606
What?!

881
01:33:46,211 --> 01:33:49,539
Okay. I'll be there right away.

882
01:33:53,953 --> 01:33:57,354
You're going to work at a time like this?

883
01:33:59,491 --> 01:34:01,153
Lady at the bath house...

884
01:34:02,461 --> 01:34:03,887
passed away.

885
01:34:32,858 --> 01:34:34,621
She's my wife, Mika.

886
01:34:44,169 --> 01:34:46,994
She collapsed while carrying firewood...

887
01:34:48,273 --> 01:34:50,468
and passed away.

888
01:34:52,544 --> 01:34:55,044
She was working 'til the very end.

889
01:34:55,614 --> 01:34:58,515
It'll be lonely around here,

890
01:34:59,018 --> 01:35:01,486
without this bath house.

891
01:38:03,869 --> 01:38:07,361
Please wipe her face one by one,

892
01:38:07,539 --> 01:38:10,565
and bid her farewell one last time.

893
01:38:55,687 --> 01:38:57,081
Mom...

894
01:39:28,787 --> 01:39:30,152
Mother...

895
01:40:39,291 --> 01:40:40,553
Shiori.

896
01:40:42,995 --> 01:40:45,293
This is good-bye to your grandma.

897
01:40:47,599 --> 01:40:49,123
Mother...

898
01:41:00,846 --> 01:41:02,404
Thank you for everything.

899
01:41:16,395 --> 01:41:18,158
This is where you work?

900
01:41:25,337 --> 01:41:29,330
Everyone, please see her off with a prayer.

901
01:41:43,021 --> 01:41:46,218
Please allow me to close the window.

902
01:42:01,940 --> 01:42:03,437
Thank you...

903
01:42:05,410 --> 01:42:07,202
see you again.

904
01:43:01,399 --> 01:43:04,562
Can I witness the last moments of my mother?

905
01:43:10,108 --> 01:43:11,575
Thank you.

906
01:43:17,782 --> 01:43:23,914
I guess people get a hunch about these things.

907
01:43:27,092 --> 01:43:33,053
Last winter, the two of us had a little Christmas party.

908
01:43:35,367 --> 01:43:39,257
I didn't expect her to celebrate it at this age.

909
01:43:40,105 --> 01:43:41,169
But...

910
01:43:41,973 --> 01:43:44,771
she said she wanted to have one no matter what.

911
01:43:46,178 --> 01:43:50,945
We bought a small cake, lit up the candles...

912
01:43:52,384 --> 01:43:54,682
and celebrated together.

913
01:43:57,389 --> 01:44:00,756
Then, out of the blue...

914
01:44:02,160 --> 01:44:06,460
she asked me to help her with the firewood.

915
01:44:09,701 --> 01:44:13,762
This must have been what she meant.

916
01:44:15,340 --> 01:44:21,370
I'm good at burning things.

917
01:44:29,087 --> 01:44:34,957
Working here for a long time makes me think...

918
01:44:37,062 --> 01:44:41,829
that death... is a gateway.

919
01:44:44,035 --> 01:44:48,665
Death doesn't mean the end,

920
01:44:50,208 --> 01:44:55,175
but leaving the present, heading for the next stage.

921
01:44:57,182 --> 01:45:00,613
Truly a gateway.

922
01:45:02,854 --> 01:45:06,846
As a gatekeeper,

923
01:45:08,360 --> 01:45:11,488
I've seen off many people.

924
01:45:16,101 --> 01:45:17,768
"Have a nice trip,

925
01:45:19,371 --> 01:45:24,673
see you again", I would say...

926
01:45:51,269 --> 01:45:52,702
Mom...

927
01:45:54,906 --> 01:45:57,704
I'm sorry, mom...

928
01:46:01,179 --> 01:46:03,704
I'm sorry, mom.

929
01:46:09,220 --> 01:46:12,280
I'm sorry.

930
01:46:14,693 --> 01:46:15,955
Mom...

931
01:46:20,999 --> 01:46:24,560
I'm sorry, mom.

932
01:46:55,800 --> 01:46:57,097
What are you doing?

933
01:46:58,737 --> 01:46:59,829
This is it!

934
01:47:12,217 --> 01:47:13,145
Here.

935
01:47:15,220 --> 01:47:16,150
What?

936
01:47:19,991 --> 01:47:21,080
Stone-letter.

937
01:47:21,359 --> 01:47:22,223
"Stone-letter"?

938
01:47:24,396 --> 01:47:25,754
In the ancient times,

939
01:47:26,398 --> 01:47:29,162
before humans invented writing...

940
01:47:29,868 --> 01:47:32,268
they searched for the stone that resembled their feelings,

941
01:47:32,404 --> 01:47:33,996
and gave it to another person.

942
01:47:34,873 --> 01:47:37,706
The person who received the stone,

943
01:47:37,976 --> 01:47:40,569
read the other person's feelings by the weight and texture.

944
01:47:40,645 --> 01:47:45,582
For example, smooth texture symbolizing a peaceful mind,

945
01:47:46,584 --> 01:47:49,917
and rough texture symbolizing a concern for others.

946
01:48:06,704 --> 01:48:07,864
Thank you.

947
01:48:09,140 --> 01:48:10,568
What did you feel?

948
01:48:12,477 --> 01:48:13,505
It's a secret.

949
01:48:17,615 --> 01:48:19,473
That's a wonderful story.

950
01:48:20,051 --> 01:48:21,818
Who did you hear it from?

951
01:48:23,822 --> 01:48:25,089
My old man.

952
01:48:28,626 --> 01:48:32,289
Does that mean... that big stone too?

953
01:48:32,997 --> 01:48:35,693
Yes, I got it from my father.

954
01:48:39,003 --> 01:48:40,732
I never knew.

955
01:48:41,439 --> 01:48:44,670
"Let's give each other stone-letters every year", he said...

956
01:48:44,809 --> 01:48:46,970
yet that was the only time.

957
01:48:47,445 --> 01:48:49,078
Such a lousy father!

958
01:49:16,274 --> 01:49:19,505
Can you play every day for the unborn baby?

959
01:49:19,644 --> 01:49:20,508
Sure.

960
01:49:34,959 --> 01:49:37,928
What nice weather.

961
01:49:52,143 --> 01:49:53,310
Good afternoon.

962
01:49:55,146 --> 01:49:57,137
Is this the Kobayashi residence?

963
01:49:57,582 --> 01:49:58,514
Yes.

964
01:49:59,083 --> 01:50:00,948
A telegram for Ms. Kazuko.

965
01:50:01,719 --> 01:50:02,447
What...?

966
01:50:03,421 --> 01:50:06,288
Is she no longer here?

967
01:50:06,724 --> 01:50:12,560
No, uh... my mother-in-law passed away two years ago.

968
01:50:13,431 --> 01:50:17,060
Really? Oh...

969
01:50:17,502 --> 01:50:18,730
Excuse me, can I see it?

970
01:50:19,003 --> 01:50:20,027
You're not supposed to...

971
01:50:26,091 --> 01:50:30,591
[ Kobayashi Hideki. Time of death: 7:30 of the 18th,
please come and collect his body... ]

972
01:50:39,591 --> 01:50:41,525
I'm back, sorry for taking so long.

973
01:50:41,693 --> 01:50:43,786
Daigo, you forgot to take your cell phone.

974
01:50:43,928 --> 01:50:47,921
What? Oh... it's back home.
Sorry.

975
01:50:52,070 --> 01:50:53,970
Father passed away.

976
01:50:54,105 --> 01:50:55,103
Whose?

977
01:50:56,207 --> 01:50:57,431
Yours.

978
01:51:00,778 --> 01:51:02,837
What do you mean?

979
01:51:03,948 --> 01:51:08,180
... is what they told me when I called the Yurahama Fishing Association.

980
01:51:09,654 --> 01:51:13,420
Our address was in his belongings.

981
01:51:15,660 --> 01:51:18,220
But I don't even know him...

982
01:51:19,564 --> 01:51:21,532
I haven't seen him in more than 30 years!

983
01:51:22,266 --> 01:51:24,757
And the person he ran away with can take care of him.

984
01:51:26,337 --> 01:51:28,635
It seems he was alone the whole time.

985
01:51:32,944 --> 01:51:35,310
He'll be cremated tomorrow morning.

986
01:51:35,947 --> 01:51:39,610
It seems his body is in their assembly hall.

987
01:51:47,892 --> 01:51:51,293
Anyway, we're no longer legally related...

988
01:51:52,163 --> 01:51:53,892
tell them I can't sign the documents.

989
01:51:54,032 --> 01:51:55,590
Thanks.

990
01:51:55,767 --> 01:51:56,524
Dai...

991
01:52:01,039 --> 01:52:02,336
Please go for him.

992
01:52:02,840 --> 01:52:04,307
Don't worry about it.

993
01:52:05,143 --> 01:52:07,111
Please, I'm begging you.

994
01:52:15,787 --> 01:52:17,181
I...

995
01:52:19,791 --> 01:52:22,658
abandoned my son in Hokkaido.

996
01:52:25,029 --> 01:52:26,257
He was 6 years old.

997
01:52:30,902 --> 01:52:32,631
I fell in love with someone...

998
01:52:34,405 --> 01:52:36,600
"Mommy, mommy"...

999
01:52:38,009 --> 01:52:39,982
he cried, but...

1000
01:52:42,080 --> 01:52:46,312
I shook off his small arm, and left home.

1001
01:52:57,361 --> 01:52:59,026
Your son...

1002
01:53:01,899 --> 01:53:04,834
Of course I want to see him, but... I can't.

1003
01:53:07,472 --> 01:53:08,696
Why not?

1004
01:53:10,508 --> 01:53:12,935
Just go see him if you want to.

1005
01:53:25,556 --> 01:53:28,047
Do all parents who've abandoned their child act like that?

1006
01:53:31,863 --> 01:53:33,763
Then you're all too irresponsible!

1007
01:53:48,579 --> 01:53:50,171
Please, go for him.

1008
01:53:50,548 --> 01:53:52,778
Go and see his last appearance.

1009
01:54:10,001 --> 01:54:11,059
Dai...

1010
01:54:52,476 --> 01:54:53,643
Boss...

1011
01:55:10,695 --> 01:55:11,793
Hey...

1012
01:55:16,634 --> 01:55:18,033
Take one you like.

1013
01:55:24,542 --> 01:55:25,634
Go ahead.

1014
01:55:48,900 --> 01:55:51,994
He was already dead when I showed up this morning.

1015
01:55:53,404 --> 01:55:55,031
I was surprised.

1016
01:55:56,340 --> 01:55:58,308
I don't know where he came from,

1017
01:55:59,176 --> 01:56:01,508
but he came to this town by himself.

1018
01:56:02,346 --> 01:56:06,578
He worked very hard at the port.

1019
01:56:07,451 --> 01:56:11,512
So I let him live in this shack.

1020
01:56:12,089 --> 01:56:13,488
I see...

1021
01:56:17,728 --> 01:56:20,891
He was a quiet man...

1022
01:56:23,701 --> 01:56:29,162
I'm glad someone from his family showed up.

1023
01:56:34,211 --> 01:56:37,078
People from the funeral home will be here soon.

1024
01:56:37,715 --> 01:56:38,579
Okay.

1025
01:57:01,305 --> 01:57:05,533
He's your father.

1026
01:57:10,314 --> 01:57:12,281
I'm ashamed to admit...

1027
01:57:14,185 --> 01:57:16,150
I don't recognize...

1028
01:57:18,689 --> 01:57:20,754
his face.

1029
01:57:22,426 --> 01:57:24,223
That he looked like this...

1030
01:57:26,430 --> 01:57:28,561
It doesn't even ring a bell.

1031
01:57:47,985 --> 01:57:51,921
What was this man's life?

1032
01:57:55,326 --> 01:57:57,560
He lived for 70-odd years...

1033
01:57:58,529 --> 01:58:01,289
Only to leave a cardboard box behind.

1034
01:58:05,069 --> 01:58:06,327
He's here.

1035
01:58:08,539 --> 01:58:09,430
Thanks.

1036
01:58:10,541 --> 01:58:12,509
Excuse us.

1037
01:58:13,244 --> 01:58:14,677
Excuse us.

1038
01:58:20,051 --> 01:58:21,513
Can I take him now?

1039
01:58:40,037 --> 01:58:41,527
Let's just toss him in.

1040
01:58:41,672 --> 01:58:42,639
Yeah.

1041
01:58:44,141 --> 01:58:45,103
Um...

1042
01:58:45,643 --> 01:58:46,473
Yes?

1043
01:58:47,511 --> 01:58:49,240
May I?

1044
01:58:49,447 --> 01:58:52,143
No, we can do it.

1045
01:58:52,283 --> 01:58:56,049
Just give him a drink after we place him into the coffin.

1046
01:58:56,287 --> 01:58:57,254
Ready...

1047
01:59:01,025 --> 01:59:02,322
What are you doing?

1048
01:59:04,862 --> 01:59:06,488
My husband is...

1049
01:59:07,231 --> 01:59:09,755
an encoffiner.

1050
02:04:17,441 --> 02:04:18,835
Father...

1051
02:04:23,981 --> 02:04:25,512
He's my father.

1052
02:04:42,566 --> 02:04:43,760
Father...
