Fukada keeps the story tightly focused on Ichiko\u2019s perspective, illustrating with patience and compassion the different forms of trauma that can be created by one event, and\u2014in keeping with the themes of his internationally acclaimed Harmonium\u2014how easily and frighteningly a life can spiral out of control.
