Natsume Hamanaka was a police rookie with a promising future until she was in a car crash that killed her brother and took her eyesight. Three years later, she gets around with her seeing-eye dog Pal, but she's unable to get over her regret and devastation. One evening, she encounters a car collision and hears the faint voice of a young woman from inside the car pleading for help before the car speeds away. On recounting the incident to the police, however, they conclude that she's an unreliable witness and psychologically unstable so they drop the case. Armed with investigative know-how from the police academy and her insights and enhanced senses, Natsume is certain that the girl in the car was kidnapped. The car had collided into a teenage skateboarder, Haruma Kunisaki, who she teams up with and they undertake their own investigation. (Hawaii International Film Festival)
