Kids (DVD) (English Subtitled) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region 3

WaT's Koike Teppei (Lovely Complex) and Nodame Cantabile's Tamaki Hiroshi star in the highly anticipated new film Kids. After successfully adapting the main story from renowned writer Otsuichi's best-selling light novel series Kimi ni Shika Kikoenai to film in early 2007, director Hagishima Tatsuya brings the novel's second story Kids to the big screen with an even more photogenic cast and heartrending narrative. From Kimi ni Shika Kikoenai to Waiting in the Dark, Otsuichi's works are known for their acute depictions of pain and loneliness, and Kids again hits the heart with the story of three friends walking a long and lonely road of suffering and healing. Other than the fan service pairing of Koike Teppei and Tamaki Hiroshi, Kids also co-stars popular actress Kuriyama Chiaki (Kill Bill).

On the outside, tough scrap yard worker Takeo (Tamaki Hiroshi) seems to have nothing in common with the innocent, almost childlike Asato (Koike Teppei), but both are lonely souls bearing dark pasts. Crossing paths by chance, Takeo, Asato, and shy diner waitress Shiho (Kuriyama Chiaki) strike up an unlikely friendship, making life in their dead-end hometown a bit more bearable. Asato was born with special powers that prove to be both his blessing and his curse: he has the ability to transfer other people's wounds to his own body. He can't help but try to heal those around him, including Takeo and Shiho, but his powers come at a painful cost. Asato's powers tore apart his family years ago and continue to tear at him in the present. With Asato determined to hurt himself to help others, Takeo may be the only one who can save his friend.
