All God's Children Can Dance(2000)

It is post Kobe earthquake, and following his night of drunkenness –which the audience only hears about in the past tense- Yoshiya drags himself out of bed and forces himself to work. At the train station in Tokyo on the journey home, Yoshiya spots a man who is missing an earlobe. And then Yoshiya’s journey begins.
