    Dur
    2017-01-13
    Manab, an artist, a free-mind, is in the hospital, struggling for his life. He is an orphan, but the love of his life, Puja, is beside him. Being his support memories comes flashing back in her mind or are they realization of something ominous that had happened in the past. Or shouldn't have happened rather. Something which changed their life forever. This is the story of Dur, a story about love, relationships and most importantly realizations. The film, treated through 10 different fights and its realisations in the second half is a unique treatment the writer/director has tried to play with. The film, without being preachy, dwells on the fact that life as it is might not give us a second chance…a second chance to repent or correct our mistakes.

    After six years away, D.A. Kuryu Kohei (Kimura Takuya) returns to his former Josai branch of the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office, just in time for a brewing storm.

With the media, politicians, and a special investigative team breathing down his back, Kohei must handle the case with care (and flair) to find out the truth.
