About The Suicide Chain
After attempting to meet someone new on a dating website, Chihiro starts talking to Makoto, who is asking around about a string of suicides. She agrees to meet with him, as she knew one of the girls that recently passed. After the two begin to connect a bit, Makoto gets an e-mail from Chihiro, saying she doesn't see a purpose to continue living.
Directed by Rei Sakamoto, The Suicide Chain leans on a strong ensemble — Rina Sasahara, Yohta Kawase, Akira Kudo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2001.
