After being raped by her stepfather, teenaged Yuki (Saki Kamiryo) takes shelter in a remote mental hospital. In the course of her stay, she meets a host of fellow patients whose stories tend to be as troubling as her own. Included amongst them are schizophrenic Kuro; Hidemaru, a stately student of calligraphy; the gentle Chuya, a would-be playwright; and Shohachi, who is retarded. Tragically, Yuki also makes the acquaintance of Shigemune, a hulking drug addict who causes the girl to suffer yet another rape. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, All Movie Guide
