Hyena's Night
A strange job offer falls into the lap of scoop photographer Kumpei Takimura, and that becomes the source of all the trouble. A drinking man with a beautiful and mysterious charm. A disheartened actor aims for a comeback on the big stage, while a female producer with unstoppable momentum accompanies him. A mysterious man searching for his runaway daughter; complicated human relationships. For the sake of haphazardly intertwined colors and a small bit of pride, for the sake of a glimmer of justice. And so begins Takimura Kumpei's battle to protect those he loves, a battle in which he risks his manhood and his very life.
