Rhapsody of the Scavengers 1999

Directed by Kazuyoshi Sekine

Iwao and Ken live together, getting by on irregular odd jobs. Under mounting financial pressure, Ken secretly turns to sex work—but a routine client encounter draws him into a dangerous kidnapping case. As they dig deeper into the abduction of a wealthy heiress, they realize it is far from a simple crime. Beneath the surface lies a web of family power struggles and financial conspiracies—and the true mastermind may be closer than they think.
