Living as a lodger and feeling increasingly out of place, Asami Mitsuhiko accompanies his mother, Yukie, to Karatsu in Saga Prefecture, Kyushu, where an exhibition titled “Toyo Sahashi Arita Ware Solo Exhibition” is being held. Sahashi Toyo, a man believed to be around seventy, is a well-known Arita-ware ceramic artist and someone connected to Mitsuhiko’s late father. At the exhibition venue, Mitsuhiko meets Toyo, a beautiful woman named Hisako (Tokoshima Yoshiko), art critic Kageyama Hidetaro, and fellow ceramic artist Kusama Kanji The following day, Mitsuhiko is informed that Kageyama has been murdered—stabbed in the chest with a knife. Yellow sand has been scattered over the body, and a memo bearing the words “Sayo-hime’s …” is left at the scene. After providing local detective Yasuda with a clue, Mitsuhiko finds himself under suspicion instead. (Source: Japanese = TBS || Translation = kisskh) Edit Translation
