Synopsis

It is just another suburban town until the day two events gradually begin to change things forever. First we see a rash of graffiti featuring a local girl, Haruko Azumi, in a series of spray-painted "Missing Girl" posters appearing on the walls of the town. The other, more sinister event is the rise of a gang of vicious high school girls making random attacks on men. The local press covers the story, the graffiti goes viral on the internet and the entire story becomes one of the hottest topics on Twitter. On close examination it appears there is a connection, perhaps the Girl Gang have been inspired by the "Haruko is Missing" posters and have decided to take revenge on all men. This suspenseful tale features the daily lives of japanese women from various age groups, teenage high-school girls, young women in their 20's just starting their careers, and working women in their 30's, long considered by Japanese custom to be 'past their peek.'
