Description:

In the gripping mystery film 64 (Rokuyon), tension escalates within the D Prefectural Police department. While the public relations office clashes with the correspondents club over perpetrator anonymity, a critical deadline looms. The statute of limitations on the infamous Showa 64 case, the tragic 1989 kidnapping and murder of Shokochan, is set to expire in just one week. To mark the occasion, a Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department director plans to inspect the victim's family home, but the grieving family refuses the visit. As internal conflicts intensify, a gag order is slapped on the original investigators, raising an iron curtain between the Criminal Investigations Department and the Police Affairs Department. Amidst the chaos of a mysterious memo and rising bureaucratic pressure, history repeats itself in the most terrifying way. Just before the planned inspection, a new kidnapping occurs, serving as an exact copycat of the unsolved Showa 64 tragedy. This thrilling police procedural delivers a masterclass in suspense, institutional cover-ups, and the desperate race against time.
