Set in Hiroshima, this is a family story spun by the musicians 'Midnight Brothers', in the lead roles. This fictional film offers a taste of the real temperature and atmosphere of the area, along with music born in Hiroshima. In a small alley in town, you hear singing. The acoustic sound seems to be coming from the upper floor of a secondhand bookstore in a wooden house. The three brothers of the Yamao family, Morio (Mikaka), the eldest, Rinzou (Jacky), the second, and Mitsuki (Nokkon), the third, have music in common, but they are all very different in their approach to it. All of them are in their mid-30's and have moved on with their lives, but sometimes they get together in Morio's room to sing. The reason for the three of them to sing together is to hold the memorial service for their father, who passed away about 30 years ago. It is the only family event in which they drink and sing together. One day, Morio receives a letter from his half-sister Kawase Hatsuki (Maeda Tami), who has been separated from him since his birth. The distant sister, whom he has not heard from for about 30 years, begins to become entangled in the three brothers' relationship. By the way, Mitsuki also receives news on his smart phone that requires him to make a life choice. The unexpected news sets the days of the Yamao family in motion before the 33rd anniversary of their father's death, which will be a mourning ceremony. A story of one step forward for the brothers, spun through the songs of "Inukoro(whelps)" and others.

There was a time when Bob Lee Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) was the best trigger-man in the military, but after growing disillusioned with the system, he disappeared without a trace. When high-profile government officials locate him at his remote mountain retreat following an extensive search, Swagger is coerced back into service in order to stop a determined assassin from taking out the President of the United States. In the process of carrying out his mission, however, Swagger suddenly realizes that he has been betrayed when he becomes the subject of a nationwide manhunt. Now wounded and desperate to reveal the culprits behind the conspiracy before it's too late, Swagger sets into motion a revenge plan that will send shock waves rippling to some of the most powerful and corrupt leaders in the free world. Having seen his spotter buddy Donnie Fenn die as disloyal brass abandoned them on mission, US Marine champion sharpshooter Bob Lee Swagger resigned to live in the Wyoming Rockies, alone with his dog. Colonel Isaac Johnson uses his fellow Medal of Honor reputation and patriot appeal to lure Bob back for a short mission: working out how a 'suspected' sniper could kill the president, speaking at public venues. After his report, a second speaking guest of honor, Ethiopian archbishop Desmond Mutumbo, is killed 'by accident,' and a local cop fails to eliminate Bob. Shot twice and on the run, he handcuffs rookie FBI special agent Nick Memphis and steals his FBI car, which he drives into the river after a long chase. Unable to treat his wounds effectively, he drives to Donnie's widow (Sarah Fenn) in Kentucky. She helps sew him up and assists his search for the culprits, later joined by Nick, who faces dishonorable discharge or worse but smells a rat and dares dig for the nasty truth on Johnson's White House ploy (rescued by Bob before a torture team disposes of him, too). Taking on the schemers proves dangerous for all. —KGF Vissers
