## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Yokohama harbor, 1940. Rain slicks the cobblestones beneath a rolled umbrella left at a train platform.  
A wife deciphers her husband’s coded ledgers, then burns a photograph.  
Less espionage than a Kurosawa ghost story wearing trench coats.

**Mood tags**: paranoid, slow-burn
