Birthday

A young woman (Yumika Hayashi) is so demoralized that she's bent on violent self-destruction on her twentieth birthday. But when she meets a serial train groper (Kôichi Imaizumi) who is also overcome with loneliness and abandonment, a fresh and revitalizing attraction begins to take root. As these two highly trouble characters begin exposing themselves to each other in more ways than one, the unexpected emerges.

A highly unlikely and surprisingly tender entry within the equally unlikely Molester's Train film series, Hisayasu Satô's Birthday (also known as Molester's Train: Naughty Behavior) is a thoughtful rumination on alienation and grief.
