Running in Madness, Dying in Love
This is a shallow question.
How did a person such like you know it?
What are you saying? Say again!
Say how many times are all right. Brother is a fool.
Have you ever thought what you do everyday?
Bastard!
Brother.
As the police, national rights are protected Is it possible to hit the person
Brother, join us.
I'm looking for criminals everyday. For those peoples who protected by law.
I chose justice.
So you just hit me for all,
This is not violence, this is love's spur.
Don't fudge me,
There's nothing you can do except use violence.
- You are not police, you are jackal! - What?
Stop! Husband, don't fight!
Stop you all!
You hit, I let you hit! I've clearly seen your real face!
You say what violence,
There's only this one way for those persons who only know violent means.
Husband, stop fighting!
Please, I beg you.
Ain't you brothers?
You are a shallow-headed pighead!
What?
Stop! Husband!
Please, stop fighting!
I let you hit me,
but I won't cry craven.
Stop fighting!
Brother!
Sister!
It's my fault.
Husband!
It's me shot him, it's me!
No.
It's me.
No.
I will die too.
No, not sister!
I shot him.
Please, let me die.
This is an accident.
Sister has gone since brother was died.
She left a posthumous letter in brother's hand, and left home.
Brother committed suicide after he read the letter.
Sooner or later the police will know what you did.
Several days later, sister came back home suddenly.
She found brother's body, call the police right now.
No one thinks we killed him.
- We... - Yes.
We two killed him.
However, I have identification that I didn't at the scene.
Sister has the same sin with me.
You take care.
I will go back the day after tomorrow.
It's opposite platform.
Sorry, brother.
although it's an accident, but no difference with be killed.
If thing was revealed, I will prove that sister is innocent.
It's me killed brother.
I must die.
Sister!
Danger!
Your idea is wrong,
If you die now, that's meaningless, useless. Brother can't return to life.
That's just an accident.
We must instead the dead brother, to carry our own responsibility.
What?
We were not in home.
We didn't do anything.
But...
Sister...
Sister!
What's the matter with you?
You can't go by this plan?
I don't want to do. So, what can I do?
I'm afraid.
What can I do in the future?
We can't escape in our whole lives.
Do you mean to die is the better way? It's also a escape if you die now.
You think.
You died, but the reality is still unchangeable.
Only this.
Don't do foolish things.
This is totally unjustifiable.
For stopping quarrelling brother,
I killed him.
I'm a criminal!
The police have satisfied if confirm who is the prisoner.
Who's victim, who's murderer?
brother thinks in this way too.
I go to give oneself up.
I have killed. Police officer and I have a fist fight each other. My head is injured.
Then, brother...
However, a brother had already died.
Say to the police an accident is dead
The case can't be settled down when being formed.
- The person who I kill... - No...
Don't shield me
It is that we two killed
I must atone for one's crime.
Must be in order to extremely atone for one's crime.
Do you really think in this way
Jump down if you wanted to die!
Do you fear?
I fear.
I fear too.
Everyone will fear!
Person that fear can jump down from here. (?)
You have, sister. You have things feared even more!
Only because the other side is the people
Fear that
I have seen his eyes again.
brother's remains of the deceased are very gentle.
It is very ordinary police's face
In order to dispel your fear, wave hands by oneself.
Throw the stone away!
There are no others.
I do not want to die.
People don't die very simple.
Let's escape together.
Sister isn't all right alone.
Please use slowly.
Thanks.
Have not published on the newspaper!
Morning newspaper and evening paper were not published!
It is a local paper.
But...
The police have been killed.
This is kind of major issue, the newspaper is impossible to pay no attention to.
I am not blaming sister.
It is the rifle that cocks off.
Sister and I do not want to kill.
Why will we escape, if I didn't killed?
It is advisable that needn't escape.
You want me same words to speak several times.
How it is the accident? State at that time, no one will believe it.
- It is what people all think of in this way. - I won't hear it!
Been so escaping all the time; too painful.
Sister, you should calm down.
I think I am very happy now,
with Sister liking it.
I don't think that it is painful to escape.
I'll be in more pain when making psychological preparations.
Though I did according to one's own faith
But I can't forgive oneself
You want to say anything
I am a murderer who kills the husband. I am only a murderer!
Don't say again!
Some strange thought don't arise.
If sister is the murderer's words, I am an accomplice.
I am a murderer
Sister!
It is I that have killed.
You have not killed.
You have not killed, sister!
I am very in pain.
I fear to die.
Sister.
Don't cry!
I have killed. I am a murderer.
If the murderer's words, it was we that kill brother.
- We are this ability. - It is not for such a thing.
It is like this...
It is for killing like this.
If sister is the murderer's words,
I for and may so in sister, kill. (?)
People will not die easily.
Is killing really that easy?
I think of dying many times.
But I didn't do it; I have lived like this.
When brother marries you, I opposed to it.
Say:
"Don't marry her, make her with me".
Have listened to this words.
Everybody smiles.
Say I am a child, look down upon me.
You just smile too.
It should be brother's relation. You went to Tokyo.
- I was very young at that time. - You are still very young now.
Do you really like brother? Do you really love him?
- I think it would be like this. - While losing you, I really thought very much.
But before seeing Sister again, I couldn't die.
Later had passed for 4 years.
Four years was very long.
Gradually, I missed your light.
The friend around said is always a thing about the sex.
I've been missing you all the time.
Sae-chan, you mustn't say!
Snow accumulated in the hometown. I... thinking if it snows in Tokyo, too.
If it snows, it is very cold in Tokyo.
Don't say again!
I like very much...
Have grown up...
I am an adult now.
The adult is in this way.
Like living with your brother very much.
- Does brother like you, too? - Don't carry him again.
I don't want to speak ill of him.
Embrace me!
brother was killed by us.
I will get back to Okinawa.
Sister!
I have no longer been a sister.
Quite right.
I am sorry, I don't understand the reason.
It's nothing. I have been very lonely all the time.
Think with you when we were together, just like turn into individual.
I find this.
What you want to do?
You mustn't throw the things away in the coast.
We didn't do that bad thing!
You throw this kind of thing away in the coast. It will be angry to be even supernatural.
Disrespectful to sea.
Let me do, too!
Hurry up!
No.
You calculate anything.
Let me do!
Sister!
Where are you?
Sister!
What's the matter with you?
He has already walked.
Let's go back.
I fear. It is not the rifle that cocks off. It is the rifle that I open!
Don't speak foolish words.
I do not want to escape again.
I fear!
Calm down.
We will try every possible means.
I can't go back!
What's the matter with you?
Anything needn't be afraid.
The newspaper has not stepped on that, today.
Yes.
I go to have a bath.
Child.
I want children.
I want my own child.
People without complaint.
Honest and tolerant.
But you purity further
I am still not all right.
Even there are men in addition, but I cannot stand.
I cannot do.
Oh yes.
Perhaps you are waiting for I and Sae-chan.
It is I that have killed you.
Sister!
Really, we...
...have not vomitted the heartfelt wishes each other.
But even...
We understood each other.
I didn't hide anything.
If you wanna know something,
I'll tell you.
Perhaps I am really an idealist.
However, anyone thinks that the revolution succeeds.
It is a revolutionary thing.
No.
Where's difference?
Sister.
Except you, I have not wanted not to ask,
If we can spend two life to live like this. (?)
- You are lying. - I'm not lying.
Maybe someday, we will be caught,
but only we two.
It's also good to be caught.
Even we've been caught, the truth won't change.
It's fire accidentally.
The sin of sister and me is not very serious.
You are lying.
So why you escaped?
Why you escaped together with me?
I hope our two-men's world
will keep longer and longer.
I never changed at all.
I like sister.
Your brother's child.
Sae-chan.
He's your brother's child.
What can I do?
I want not only one child,
I want three.
Alright.
But a thing that has happened can be changed.
Do you wanna have a child?
I wasn't pregnant.
It was supposedly pregnant.
Sister.
I'm a bad woman.
From that time Yin came to Tokyo, she feels a disentanglement.
And then, you came.
Compare with him, a hard-working man, I liked you more.
But why can be this?
I don't know what I really want.
What am I?
Is this my happiness?
I always bothering...
Something must happen tomorrow.
These things happened, let me changed totally.
But nothing changed at all.
Because...
..if I won't change,
nothing will happen.
Somebody is expecting you.
Everytime I see you quarrel with your brother, I feel exciting.
I'm a bad woman, I'm afraid.
It's ok.
Nobody will come here.
It's snowing now.
Nobody will come here.
Only us.
So we can build a two-men's world.
See over here.
What?
We must go to the end of the world.
What?
I'm afraid!
Don't!
Don't quarrel, Don't quarrel!
I feel pain!
Don't quarrel, don't quarrel!
Stop!
I don't know who you are.
You just regard you've never seen us.
Let her go!
Do you wanna be killed?
Hold your hand!
It's dangerous!
Hold your hand!
We are the dominator of village.
You must pay back for your sin!
Stop!
Why you still not understand?
That woman eloped with a outlander
In our village,
from long time ago, somebody being together with an outlander...
He won't betray the village.
From millions of generations ago.
We just survived like this.
The law-breaking woman,
Breaking the law is unforgivable.
The law-breaking woman,
will be raped by all males in the village.
This woman will be raped soon,
and her man must stand in the snow for a whole day,
to pay back for his sin.
He's nearly frozen to death.
Woman should dunk in the sea for a whole day,
Clean the body and soul
She must wash carefully,
To pay back for her sin.
No,
That's human rights impingement.
You are ignorant.
If we not do this, the village will be destroyed.
If all peoples abandon village,
the village will be destroyed.
I can say millions of time,
Only this can save the village.
It's wrong they eloped for love.
They two are sinful!
You two are sinful!
Maybe we just had a dream?
Dream?
Or was it real?
Yes, it's real.
Go back.
Go back to home.
It's brother!
I really saw him!
Or we are still in dreaming?
I feel enough.
Whatever,
I wanna die like this.
Escape is wrong. Just like that old man's word.
but this is a fetishistic beginning.
Fetish or other things
Anything.
More earlier to die, more comfortable I feel.
I wanna die.
Fool!
We don't escape anymore.
We do it all over again!
Even I can't, I still wanna try.
I won't die like this.
Are you Yuri-san?
Hello.
I'm together with my brother.
You go to the car.
Thanks.
- New year's holiday? - Yes.
Be careful.
Thanks a lot.
Your parents will be very happy.
We three came back together.
Three?
I just met your brother.
It was long time, he even can't remember where home is.
He came back.
- When did you meet him? - Just ten minutes before.
I met him in front of post office.
He's really alive.
What can I do?
Be careful on your road.
Thanks.
See you another day.
Please, extend my compliments to your family.
Sae-chan, we don't go back.
If we can meet him now, tell him all things.
We don't need to escape anymore.
No.
I can't do it.
I can't meet with him.
Brother is still alive. It's great he still alive.
I really feel sorry.
Hold on please.
If now the matter can be solved, we wouldn't go into exile for the rest of our lives.
Don't!
Sae-chan!
Brother!
I have something to say.
I don't wanna listen anything.
No, you must listen our matter.
Our?
We all thought brother was died.
Unfortunately, I didn't die.
Yuri, come over here.
Are you gonna go back to home?

Our escape is not right for sure.
But at that time, the gun was fired accidentally.
Yuri don't want to kill you at all.
