Then one day, the year he turned four, Nan-na is met with a sudden addition, his sister, Oh-gi. No longer the center of attention, he is now in second place for his grandma's affections. Like a squirrel, Nan-na scurries all around the village but his grandma's frightening yells force him to take along a bundle, his sister Oh-gi wrapped in her baby quilt. Unable to play war games because of her, Nan-na starts giving Oh-gi a hard time knowing she's too young to complain. As she grows, Oh-gi develops a humpback due to malnutrition. In his childishness, Nan-na is ashamed of Oh-gi and does not let her anywhere near his school. Even though Nan-na himself makes fun of her, Oh-gi loves her brother above everyone in the world and does little things for him like pack him a lunch basket made out of wild roses. Grandma works unyieldingly to make ends meet instead of her children who have only left her with burdens. When she hurts her back and is unable to work any more, the family moves, following Nan-na's uncle. However, the unreliable uncle loses all of grandma's money by mistake and Oh-gi is sent to grandma's sister for the time being. Finally rid of the nuisance that was his sister, Nan-na unwittingly begins to miss her. When he hears from his uncle that his mother, whom he always longed for in his dreams, Nan-na goes to look for her. Confirming his mother's name on the license hanging on the bakery store, Nan-na visits time to time and glances at the middle-aged woman inside with tears in his eyes. Before long, Nan-na becomes quite respectable, delivering papers instead of ill grandma. Grandma recovers and opens a market stall and the family is reunited once again. Nan-na and Oh-gi jump for joy. However, Nan-na accidentally finds out that Oh-gi is his half-sister from his grandma. Feeling a sense of distance from her, Nan-na childishly starts mistreating her again. Forcibly, Nan-na takes the unwilling Oh-gi to the bakery. Pushing her inside, Nan-na runs away. But then, his uncle tells him the jolting truth that they were merely guessing about Oh-gi, that they weren't really sure. Nan-na runs straight away to the bakery but Oh-gi has already been sent off to a city-operated juvenile shelter... (Credit: AsianMediaWiki)

Starring: Tsuyoshi Kusanagi as Heita Kawada Yuko Takeuchi as Aoi Tachibana Yuriko Ishida as Reiko Sho Aikawa as Shuhei Keiichi Yamamoto as Hideya Nakajima Misaki Ito as Sachiko
Synopsis: A boy who died during World War II turns up at the door of his now-ancient mother, looking the same, down to his burr haircut, as he did 58 years ago. Heita (Kusanagi), an elite bureaucrat for the Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry, is called in to investigate and is flummoxed by what he discovers. But when he discusses the case with Aoi (Yuko Takeuchi), a colleague and childhood friend, she is brusquely dismissive.
The number of cases keeps growing, however. There is the elderly man whose wife resurrects several years after she died of cancer. He tells Heita he is glad to have someone to talk to again (and one suspects, wash his underwear). There is the couple running a ramen restaurant together -- and quietly falling in love -- when the woman's dead husband (Sho Aikawa) and the man's dead elder brother (Yoshikazu Toshin) appear. There is the teenage boy (Hayato Ichihara) who committed suicide to escape bullying from his classmates -- he shows up at his own funeral. There is Aoi's kindly therapist (Kunie Tanaka), whose deaf wife (Akiko Oshidari) died in childbirth -- and returns three decades later for an emotional reunion with her husband and daughter, now a teacher of the deaf. Aoi becomes a believer, while longing for a resurrection of her own: Her fiance, a lanky surfer named Shunsuke (Yusuke Iseya), died just before they were to be married. Meanwhile, Heita, who was Shunsuke's close friend and has long loved Aoi from afar, has intensely conflicting feelings about Shunsuke's return. Knowing what he now knows about the resurrected, should he help -- or hinder?
