Synopsis
Ronin corpse washer at haunted hospital falls for nurse while uncovering disturbing secrets amid deputy director's obsession.
The dream of Seiji Yasaka, a ronin, is to become a doctor, something which he wants so badly to fulfill that he joins a hospital as a part-time corpse washer. He falls in love with Nurse Yuuki Midou, but Chigusa Tsuyusaki, the hospital's deputy director, wants him for her own. As Seiji becomes more involved with the hospital and its staff, he begins to notice unsettling inconsistencies and strange occurrences that suggest something is deeply wrong with the facility and its inhabitants. What starts as a simple job to gain medical experience gradually transforms into a nightmarish journey where the boundaries between life and death become increasingly blurred.
