Synopsis
Empty Pocket
Two pickpockets wanted a little more cash. So they stupidly accepted a job to steal from a psychopath. Of course it goes wrong and the two thieves are hunted by a lunatic who enjoys opening throats a little too much.
Shoplifters
In the outskirts of Tokyo, a poor but close-knit group living on the fringes of society survives through shoplifting and odd jobs. When Osamu and his son take in a neglected young girl, their already fragile existence begins to unravel. As the family grows attached to her, buried secrets surface, forcing them to confront the true meaning of love, belonging, and what makes a family.
