Fourteen

Ryo (Akie Namiki) is an eighth-grade teacher. Her workday should be as ordinary as any other, but instead she finds herself mediating a tense atmosphere between students and faculty. When Ryo is subjected to the unique viciousness of fourteen-years-old, her troubled past is exposed. By coincidence she encounters Koichi (Hiromasa Hirosue), a familiar face from her schooldays. Koichi is an average salary man who is tutoring one of Ryo's students in piano. Ryo and Koichi share a newfound connection as adults, and, reliving their adolescent traumas, discover that the fourteen-year-old within them still smolders just beneath their "grown-up" facade.
