Love And Other Cults Page #2

Synopsis: Born in a regional city, a young girl named Ai (Sairi Ito) is sent to a cult commune by her religious maniac mother and lives there for seven long years. After the cult is exposed by the police, Ai starts a new, normal life going to a regular middle school, but can't find a place to fit in normal society. Ai drops out to continue finding her path in life, first living with a rock-bottom delinquent family, then moving on to be part of a middle-class family, all along trying to find her place in this world. The only person who understands Ai is Ryota (Kenta Suga), another drop-out and cast-off from society. Ryota finds his path in a shady world of delinquents while Ai ends up working in the sex industry. Two teens' purity gets swallowed up by the urban jungle of a big regional city. A black comedy depicting lives of modern youth and their struggles in a place where there is no way out.

We'll get to the motorway,

then pass the city hall, alright

W, wait a second.

What now?

Are you serious?

Of f***ing course!

Like a motorbike gang?

We'll get arrested.

You f***ing idiots?

That's why you're here right?

You're joining our gang.

All we wanted was to

take some photos.

You want out of the team?

Team?

We're not in your team yet.

Kenta, they wanna leave the team.

$500 each then.

- What?

- You gotta pay $500 to leave.

Huh, you gotta be joking.

You!

$500.

- Ok.

- Hurry up.

Let's get outta here.

Stop it.

He said he'll pay my share.

Yeah?

I'll pay.

What's your name?

Ryota Sakuma.

You crack me up.

Let's get outta here.

That was how I met

Kenta and Yuji,

and I took my first steps

to hell.

Three years passed

before I saw Ai again.

Ai.

Geez, Ryota!

It's been a while!

Yeah.

How're ya?

I'm good.

- You look well.

- Oi.

What're ya doin'?

My boyfriend, Haruki.

- Hello.

- Which school?

This guy was Ai's first love.

Kita High? You know Yamaguchi?

- Not sure.

- He was the head of a gang.

- No.

- No? How 'bout Miura?

He came out of a juvenile prison.

- Idunno.

- How 'bout Furuya?

- I don't know.

- You don't know him?

You're kinda funny, come to mine.

Great!

Yeah.

Since Ai ran away from

her maniac mother,

she has lived with his family.

She's Miharu,

Haruki's sister.

He's her boyfriend.

Which school?

Middle school students.

- Kita High.

- Kita High!

D'ya know Sugita in year 10?

Don't think so.

You don't?

He's a real badass.

Okay, that's enough.

Come in.

He's Kazuharu, the eldest.

Can you believe he's just 18?

He looked just like a Yakuza.

Which school?

- Kita High.

- Kita, yeah?

Do you know Fujii from year 11?

I don't think so.

You don't know?

- He left school 'coz you bullied him.

- Oh yeah!

She's Chee, still in a middle school.

She looked like a

club hostess to me.

Sit over here.

Ai found a new place

to fit in, here.

F***ing stinks.

She is their mother.

She had a tough life

becoming a mother at 14.

And she is a fearless

gambler who pours

all her benefits

into slot machines.

For the first time in Ai's life,

she felt a sense of unity

as a part of the family.

Family should stand by each other.

Where have they gone?

Er... Work?

Work...

Yep!

- Yes?

- Um,

is Miharu home?

She's out now.

Hey, let's go.

Give me a second.

I'm Yuka, Miharu's classmate.

Can you give her a message?

Yes.

What's up?

All her classmates wish Miharu

to come back to school.

Please tell her to be brave

and come to school.

Gotcha.

Hey, forget about Miharu.

This place scares me.

- I feel sorry for her, though.

- Who cares?

Anyway, do you know who he is?

Isn't he from Kita High?
