In 1975, an obscure rock band called Gekirin record a song called "Fish Story" that anticipates the sound of punk rock that's just beginning in New York and London. The band breaks up shortly after "Fish Story" is released due to record company interference, but the song has an ongoing life over the years. The film jumps between decades as the recording plays a role in several seemingly unrelated scenarios: a member of the hospitality staff on a ferry (Mirai Moriyama) wins the heart of a beautiful girl while battling hijackers; Masaru (Gaku Hamada) and his buddies look for women on a lonely and boring evening; a comet heads towards Earth while a strange man in a record store lectures those around him about the impending destruction of the Earth; and how Gekirin came to write the song.

Un groupe hétéroclite de neuf détenus s'évade d'une prison au Japon, un ensemble d'individus condamnés pour les crimes les plus divers et que rien n'aurait dû réunir hormis le fait de se trouver au même endroit au même moment, dans cette grande cellule collective. De la cavale qui suit ce fait divers imaginaire, Toshiaki Toyoda, réalisateur du fameux Aoi Haru [Blue Spring] crée 9 Souls (neuf âmes en français), suivant le parcours de ce groupe qui se crée pour mieux se déliter, de tous et de chacun de ces individus en recherche, mais de quoi? Un film doux et dur sur l'homme, la culpabilité et la rédemption qui mêle habilement comédie et tragédie, poésie et action dans un voyage picaresque à travers le Japon contemporain.

Back in the 1990s, way before the manufactured pop acts we now see on TV, there was a flood of indie rock bands that were televised during talent contests that guaranteed instant fame. Amongst that band boom, a group of young musicians managed to dominate the music scene, a band that shone brightest for a brief moment in time.

Do you believe in love after death? On the eve of her 19th birthday, Mizuki (Kuriyama) doesn't have a lot to celebrate about. Her mother recently committed suicide, her stepfamily bothers her, her boyfriend has been cheating on her and her best friend has betrayed her. Hurt and disillusioned, Mizuki runs from everything and is drawn by some unknown force to a dilapidated estate. Deep within the house Mizuki discovers the mysterious Adam (Hyde), playing a hauntingly familiar melody on the guitar. Melancholy and full of secrets, it seems that Adam, and the house, have a strange, irresistible link to Mizuki.
