Family of Strangers

Inside a psychiatric clinic in Nagano Prefecture, the fragile routines of three patients—each carrying distinct backgrounds, illnesses, and burdens ranging from criminal pasts to profound social withdrawal—are shattered by the discovery of a corpse. A murder investigation points suspicion toward one of them, transforming the therapeutic space into a claustrophobic arena of doubt. As accusations fly and trust erodes, the line between pathology and guilt blurs, trapping everyone in a tense psychological puzzle where the truth may be as fractured as the minds confined within.
