[edit] Plot
At the foot of Mt. Fuji lies the so-called suicide forest, a notorious place where people wary of life can exhale their last gasp. The four different stories in Jyukai all focus on this truly existing forest in Japan, where amongst others a gentle yakuza and a retiring detective confront each other. The forest exhumes an atmosphere of dread and functions as a connecting factor between the different tales
