Seizon: LifE

After receiving a terminal cancer diagnosis, Takeda concludes that his life has lost all meaning. Consumed by despair, he prepares to take his own life. However, just as he is about to hang himself, an unexpected phone call shatters his resignation. The police inform him that the remains of his daughter, Sawako, who vanished without a trace over fourteen years ago, have finally been discovered. This revelation thrusts Takeda into a desperate race against time. Under Japanese law, the statute of limitations for murder expires after fifteen years, leaving him with only six months before the crime can no longer be prosecuted. Facing his own mortality and this rigid legal deadline, Takeda abandons his suicidal plans. He now has exactly half a year left—not only to survive but to track down his daughter’s killer and deliver them to the authorities before justice slips away forever. What follows is a harrowing pursuit fueled by grief and determination. After more than a decade of agonizing silence and unanswered questions, Takeda’s shattered connection to his family is reignited. Driven by the urgent need to uncover the truth behind Sawako's disappearance, he embarks on a final, relentless mission to secure justice for the daughter he lost.
