## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

Late autumn in Tokyo. A receipt from a shuttered diner flutters into a storm drain.  

A chef deciphers his father’s journal, each page a colder shade of blood. The engagement ring rests in a glass of tap water.  

Feels like Hideo Nakata scoring a Kurosawa procedural to a metronome.

**Mood tags**: foreign-gem, bittersweet, cerebral, paranoid, slow-burn
