<Confession>

This is an ordinary junior high school. At the class meeting of Class B of the first grade, the remarks of Yuko Moriguchi, the head teacher, made all the students stunned. A few months ago, Mr. Moriguchi's only daughter was found dead in the school's swimming pool. In the end, the police determined that it was an accident, but she knew that the real culprits were actually two students in her class. Moriguchi announced to Prisoner A and Prisoner B who are protected by juvenile law: "This matter will not end like this, I will punish you in a way beyond imagination."

The ideological theme that this film tries to hide is based on a true description of reality, a warning to a sloping society, and a sneering ridicule to the stinky humanism, which makes people feel the chill of real life. At the end of the whole film, in the darkened screen, the last words spoken by Takako Matsuri is the best reflection of this point of view. It can be said that this is a famous sentence that renders decadent colors for arrogant sensuality.

Confessions quotes

  • Shuya Watanabe: Nobody taught me that killing people was wrong. Where other kids got read picture books and fairy tales, my mom taught me Ohm's Law and Norton's theorum. She only ever talked about electronics.

  • Yuko Moriguchi: This is my revenge. I have plunged you into the depths of hell. This is the first step towards your redemption... just kidding.
