Umi wo kakeru (Run Through Sea)
How is the image on the screen?
- Please zoom-in on Pak Nun, - Yes,
"Pak" : Indonesian way to address an adult male (Mister/ Sir)
- Can you look at the camera, please? - Okay,
Pak Nun, can you tell us your experience when the 2004 tsunami happened,
how did it affect you and your family at that time?
Well,,,
It happened on Sunday,
Actually, I had been feeling uneasy since Friday,
Every Sunday, I usually went to Banda Aceh with my daughter,
Since Sundays were our day off,
However, a few days before the tsunami struck,
which was on Friday, my child asked me to take her,,,
,,,to the place we usually went on Sundays, while crying,
I think she might have already known that the tsunami was coming,
I heard a loud boom,
Since there was still a conflict at that time, I turned around,
I thought someone was firing a gun from the ocean,
I thought maybe it was coming from the police, we call them BKO here,
Those anti-riot officers,,,
But, it wasn't a gunshot, It seemed that the waves exploded,
The water was running in the middle of the sea, like this,
All the dead bodies I saw,
were always reminding me of my daughter and my wife,,,
That was all I could think of,
Then, there was this one night,
where I finally talked to myself,
"I couldn't be like this forever,"
So, I went to Banda Aceh,
Because there were so many NGOs came,
I planned to look for a job in Banda Aceh,
The only job I had ever done was to be a driver,
I thought I had to work matter what,
If I kept myself busy,
I thought I would gradually be able to,,,
,,,get rid of my trauma and negative thoughts,
I'm sure you already know about this,
After the tsunami,
people from all over the world came to Aceh,
They came mainly for the reconstruction support,
A lot of my acquaintances from Japan also came,
At first, they asked me only to be their interpreter,
However, because there were so many things to do,
and they were short-handed at that time,
I started to help them,
So, the government's reconstruction plan,,,
,,,would be done after five years,
But, when it comes to planting trees, even after so many years,
it seems like it has no ending, right?
That's why I decided to live in Aceh and continue that plan,
So, I moved here,
with my son, Takashi,
How about your husband?
He is still in Jogja,
So, you guys don't live together?
No, But, he comes here once in a while,
Yeah, I used Bahasa Indonesia when I'm outside, but, I speak Japanese at home,
My great-grandfather was Japanese,
He came to Indonesia during the war,
and lived here ever since,
He often told me the stories about him,
and all the Indonesians who fought against the Dutch,
Excuse me for a sec,
Let's take a five-minute break, shall we?
Excuse me, where is the toilet?
Just walk straight, then turn right,
Eh? Kris!
You forgot to turn off the camera!
Can you please do it instead?
You're too serious!
- You want to be a cameraman, huh? - You also take it too seriously!
Is that your girlfriend?
- Who? That girl? - Yes,
No, she's my childhood friend,
She suddenly asked me to do this, so here I am,
She said she wanted to interview a Japanese,
I thought it would be you,
She works at my mom's NGO,
Yeah, I know,
But, I had no idea she would interview me too,
You'll be fine, All you have to do is talk,
But, my mom is the Japanese one, not me,
She is desperate,,,
Really?
She really wants to be a journalist,
Is that so,,,
Takashi, are you free right now?
Yes, I am,,,
Can you go to the airport?
Airport?
To pick up Sacchan,
All right then,,,
Sorry, I have to go,
They found a Japanese stranded on the beach,
What do you mean?
They just called me,
What happened?
Someone was found stranded on the beach, He seems to be Japanese,
Japanese?
I would like to go, but, my scooter is broken,
Is that so?
Do you have time? Now?
Why?
Come with me to the airport,
No,
Do you already have plans?
I do,
- What's that? - You don't have to know,
- Please come with me,,, - No, I don't want to,
- Please! - No!
This is Kris, my college friend,
Nice to meet you, I'm Sachiko Hayakawa,
It's my pleasure to meet you,
So, you came here for holiday?
Yeah, Kind of,
Okay, Let's go!
Takashi!
Yes?
- Hi! - Hi,
Long time no see,
Yeah,,,
You don't remember me?
We met a couple of times in Jakarta,
I'm your mother's friend,
- How are you? - I'm fine,
- How's Takako? - She's fine,
Are you on holiday?
Well, I'll be doing some coverage here,
Oh, this is my cousin, Sachiko,
This is Kris, my college friend,
Ibu Leni is a journalist, She's my mom's friend,
"Ibu" : an Indonesian way of addressing an elder female, (Lit, means "mother")
- Hello, I'm Reni, - Hi, I'm Kris,
- I'm Reni, - I'm Sachiko,
Please open your mouth,
Open your mouth,
Please open your mouth,
There is no physical injury,
But he lost his memories,
Is that so?
Please take him to the hospital,
Okay,
Thank you very much,
- Is that him? - Yes,
He looks fine,
But he doesn't remember anything,
- What do you mean? - He doesn't remember his name, where he comes from, etc,
Amnesia?
It seems so,
Does he understand any language?
I could spoke to him in Japanese,
He's Japanese then?
But, he didn't say a word even after I asked him to speak,
It might be a coincidence,
Hello,
Yes, You're right,
Yes,
Right,
Yes,
There seemed to be a Japanese tourist who rented a cottage,,,
,,,in Pulut beach,
Is that so?
He has an average height,,,
About 30ish years old,
Black hair,
Right,
Yes,
Oh, Okay,
Okay, Thank you so much,
What should we do?
Let's just take him there,
But, the owner is not there today,
Tomorrow, then?
Okay, but,,,
How about him?
He doesn't seem to understand Bahasa Indonesia,
Right,,,
He must live with someone who understands Japanese,
We're still not sure,,,
,,,whether he really understands Japanese or not,
But, he listened to you,
He can't stay in my place,
Please,,,
- Just until he regains all his memories, - When is that?
Only God knows,
My niece just came from Japan and will be staying in my place starting today,
So, I can't let him stay with me,
It's impossible,,,
Nun, wait for us!
Give us a ride!
There were a woman and a child standing here just now, right?
There was no one there!
She waved her hand to me,
You must have seen it wrong,
Hey!
What about "Laut"?
- Laut? - His name,
- That's fine, But, isn't it a bit too simple? - What is "Laut"?
It means "sea",
Right? Laut sounds good, right?
What is this?
I think you need to expand your knowledge about Japanese culture more,
You hardly read any Japanese books, right?
Sacchan, thank you! Weren't they heavy?
No, I put them all in my suitcase,
No need to! I'm not a Japanese after all,
Eh? Really?
He's an Indonesian,
After he reached 18, he could choose his citizenship,
Between Japanese or Indonesian,
You chose it yourself?
Your citizenship,
Yes,
Hooo, You're awesome!
- Then who else should chose it if it wasn't me? - Still, you're awesome,
I've never once decided something that important,
Then, what about Takako-san?
Is she an Indonesian?
Well, she has been a Japanese since birth,
Why didn't you choose to be a Japanese?
No particular reason,
I was born and grew up here in Indonesia,
Why?
Well,,,
If I were you, I would choose to be a Japanese,
Why?
Why is it?
Sacchan! Do you want to take a shower?
Yes!
Wear this,
- Here, - Thank you very much,
Over there!
I know this person,
Right?
Is it that person on a yen bill?
- What? - This author,
Right, He's Natsume Soseki,
Also,,,there's something about a cat!
"I am a cat,"
* One of Natsume Soseki's notable works,
Anything else?
I only know that,
That's understandable,
Takako-san!
What is it?
How to turn the hot water on?
Ah, sorry! We only have cold water!
There's only cold water!
I'm sorry!
That's okay!
The moon is beautiful, right?
Do you know that?
No,
That's how to say "I love you" according to Natsume Soseki,
What's that?
I don't know if it's true or not,
Can the other party understand that?
Well,,,
But this is quite like the Japanese, right?
Takako-san!
What is it?
The hot water is suddenly coming out!
Hot water!
Really?
He was Japanese,
A military police sergeant,
He came to Aceh during the war,
When the war was over, he was hiding in the forest,
Along with his friends,
Hiding from?
The Dutch,
They were told that all the military police officers,
would be killed by them,
So, they were hiding in a bunker,
But it didn't help,
They were finally caught,
Luckily, he was good at swimming,
He jumped off into the sea, and got away from them,
He looked behind while still swimming,
He saw the flashes of the guns from that bunker,
Assalamualaikum!
Waalaikumsalam!
Do you want to eat?
Yes,
How was it at the hospital?
As usual,,,
They take our money and say nothing but the same shit,
Where did you go?
Sorry?
You went to that Japanese's house again?
You mean Takako's?
Please, Dad, It has nothing to do with you anyway,
Why are you so concerned?
What?
Who do you think caused my body to be like this?
Our government did,
Who gave money to the government?
There's no way you don't know that,
Just cut it out, Dad, Stop talking about that already,
I'm not really good,,,
,,,at both Indonesian and Japanese,
People think I am Japanese, or even Chinese,
Sometimes, I feel like,
I don't even know who I am,
So, you faced lot of troubles too?
I'm already used to it,
Laut-san!
Laut?
Laut-san!
Takashi-kun, are you inside?
Your friends came,
They're outside,
What is this place?
Darkroom, I'm working on my film,
Photos,,,
Hey
Thank you for yesterday,,,
- Come with us! - Where?
Takako wants to ask the people on the beach area about Laut,
We want to film it,
You can be the photographer if you want,
She said the photos I took are bad,
You're not gentle, so your photos are all blurry!
You're also getting bored too quickly,
So, do you want to come?
I do,
Right now?
Wait a minute!
What is it?
They asked me if I want to ask around about Laut's identity with my mom,
What's that?
A ship,
An electric ship,
It was dragged all the way here,
When the tsunami happened,
Isn't it amazing? It still managed to maintain its shape,
Well, kind of,
There was something like that too, in Japan,
I saw it on the news,
Is it still there?
It had been cleaned up,
Can you please tell me about the Japanese guest who rented your cottage?
Did he look like him?
Please wait a minute, I'm going to look at my guest book first,
Thank you very much,
We had a Japanese guest named Kuroda here,
- Kuroda? - Yes,
Ma'am!
The clothes he's wearing now,
are really similar to the clothes Kuroda-san was wearing when he was last seen,
But, the hair is different,
I'm not really sure,,,
- Hi! - Hi!
- What are you doing? - Nothing,
Is that a photo?
Oh, yes,
My father took this a long time ago,
Where?
I don't know, I'm looking for it,
And there's where you're going to scatter the ashes?
Excuse me?
These are your father's, right?
You heard it from Takashi?
Yeah, Takashi told me,
And you came all the way from Japan only for that?
Kind of, Yes,
Can I see it?
I know this cave,
Do you want to go to see it?
Is it far?
It's like, a ten-minute walk from here,
Sure!
Let's go! Thank you,
If I may ask, why here? (scattering the ashes)
My father used to say that he wanted his ashes to be scattered here,
Why?
Why what?
Why here, in Aceh?
He came to visit here once when he was young, and remembered that it was beautiful,
That's it?
That's the whole reason?
Maybe there's more to it,,, but,,,
I don't know,
That's what he said,
- Excuse me, sir! - Yes?
- My name is Ilma, Can I interview you for a bit? - Yes,
- What is your name? - I'm Hilman,
How old are you?
I'm 35,
- What do you do for a living? - I'm a fisherman,
Do you get a lot of fishes this season?
No, Almost no harvest, because of the wind,
Ah, right!
Have you seen any Japanese around here lately?
Isn't she Japanese?
I mean, other than her,
How about him? Have you seen him before?
No, I haven't,
Also, have you seen any Japanese around here, lately?
Never seen any,
How about Korean or Chinese?
I didn't see any,
Maybe there was one when I wasn't here,
This is it?
Yeah,
What do you think?
It's similar, but,,,
I'm not sure,
This island, isn't it that one?
Similar, but, not really the same!
Were you here when the tsunami came?
Yeah, I was,
But my house was inland, so I was safe,
I see,
You were just like me!
But, my grandma,,, Her house,
was flooded,
The water filled up to the waist,
- But, she was safe? - Yeah, She was!
But, a lot of children were carried away,
And Ilma's house as well,
I didn't know,,,
Yeah,
She lost her mom,,,
her house, and her fortune,
And now,
she lives in a disaster recovery public house,
Do you know anything about that?
It's a small house,
Built by the government for the tsunami victims,
But, I mean,,,
actually, she comes from a really good family,
And she was way smarter than me,
But, I'm the one who goes to university,
It's kind of awkward, but,,,
I guess,,,
That's life, isn't it?
Ware wa kangun waga teki wa~
This song is an Imperial Japanese Army March called "Battotai"
Tenchi irezaru chouteki zo~
Teki no taishou taru mono wa~
Kokonmusou no eiyuu de~
Kore ni shitagou tsu wa mono wa~
Tomo ni hyoukan kesshinoshi~
Where did you learn that song from, Sir?
Oh, a long time ago, I was friends with some Japanese soldiers,
They taught me this song during the war against the Dutch,
Sir, please sing it one more time!
Ware wa kangun waga teki wa~

Where did those Romushas* go?
*forced laborers during the Japanese occupation in Indonesia,
Everyone was taken by them, as if they were fishes in the net,
Some of them became heihos*, laborers,
* Indonesian armed forces formed by Japanese occupation forces in Indonesia
and also nurses,
Just to die,
Everyone ended up with the same fate,
They were lured with some sweet words,
And they had passed into to the eternal world,
So, stop asking where they went,,,
Lebi,,,
Lebi,
It took you so long to come home,
Lebi,,,
You're finally home, Welcome back,
Sir!
He's not your son,
But, there's still lack of evidence,
No one knows a man named Kuroda,
We can't contact his family or anyone else,
Well, someone might call us if we submit a lost-or-found report,
Yes, in Japan,
Okay, Thank you for your help,
Let's go home,
Laut-san, let's go!
What's the matter?
My cellphone is broken,
Why? All of a sudden?
No, I dropped it in the sea,
Laut!
What happened?
I don't know, She already passed out,
It might be a heatstroke,
Is there any water?
Maybe we have it in the car,
- What's going on? - It seems to be a heatstroke,
- Ilma, I'll go look for some help, - Ok,
A little girl,
Huh?
A little girl,
She's sick,
You can speak Indonesian?
Yes,
It seems to be a heatstroke,
But, I'm not really sure,
Daddy!
You're back!
Where have you been?
Thank God she's safe,
Huh? Where did you go?
Don't wander around, okay?
- Okay, - You're fine, right?
I am,
You're okay, right?
You won't go home, Sir?
Sir!
"We belong to Allah and to Allah we shall return,"
Hey! He's dead!!
Please come here!
Hey, close the door!
- What do you want? - Sorry,,,
What?
I already knocked it a few times,
Sorry, So, what do you want?
I wanted to offer you some coffee,
No, thank you, I'm busy,
Sorry!
"Searching for the Identity of the Man From the Sea,"
"From Aceh,"
Hello,
Is this Rubrik Aceh?
I was the one who just sent you an email,
What do you think?
I mean, is it possible to publish it?
"The Man from the Sea,"
It's a good title, right?
It's not magic, It really happened!
Miss, how much is it?
- 20,000, - 20,000?
I'm off!
Hey!
You look so mad,
No,
I'm fine,
Give me your number, please!
- Why? - My phone is broken,
Ah, right, We'll hold a party at my house tonight,
Really?
You have to come, Everyone will be there too,
Is she also coming?
Who?
Sachiko,
Of course, We're throwing this party for her,
Ilma!
- Hi! - Sachiko!
What are you doing here?
I'm just walking around,
"Jalan-jalan,"
And, where are you going now?
I don't know,,,
I'm going this way, Want to join?
- Can I? - Sure!
Do you go to university?
Yes,
- What's your major? - English literature,
That's nice, How is it?
It's okay,,,
Do you work at that store?
Yes, but it's only temporary,
Why?
I want to be a journalist,
Wow! A journalist?
I want to get into a newspaper company, that's why I'm studying now,
By yourself?
What?
Um, study,
Oh,,, Yes, why?
You must be working really hard,
No,,, Not really,
Of course you do!
No, Stop it!
By the way,
Is there any place that you want to go?
Anywhere, any place, I can take you there,
Takashi,
Tell me,,,
,,,what Japanese girls like,
What do you mean?
Well, you know what I mean,,,
Is it about Sachiko?
Yeah,,,
Do you like her?
Seriously?
Problems?
No,,,
But, she's such an insensitive woman, you know,
Really?
I thought you liked Ilma,
What makes you to think so?
Wait, does it mean we're going to be a family?
Big bro,
My little bro,
What the hell,,,
You know she's not my little sister, right?
- Then, what will our relationship be? - How do I know?
Hey!
Let me tell you something,
What's that?
I'll teach you about how to confess your love, Japanese way,
Sachiko! This way,
Is that the ocean that you are looking for?
Yes,
But, I can't really see the ocean from here,
Oh, Sorry!
- I should have picked a place near the ocean, - No, That's fine!
I wanted to come here anyway,
By the way,,,
Is Kris your boyfriend?
No, Why?
Because you two seem very close,
We just grew up together,
Well, doesn't he like you?
Actually, he asked me before,
Oh, Did he?
We went out for couple of times, but,,,
I turned him down,
We're from different religions,
So, our parents will never allow it,
So, I'd never dated him,
Even if it's good in this moment,
But, I don't want to be in a relationship, that has no future,
That's why I,,
,,,better be friends with him,
Hey, Takashi!
What's up?
- Is it tea? - Yes,
Sachiko,,,
Thank you,
- You made this? - Yes,
- Good evening! - Good evening!
Good evening,
Hello,
Hi, Sachiko,
Have you guys met before?
We met at the airport,
Is that so?
This is Leni, She's my friend from Jakarta,
I brought some fruits,
For you,
Have some,
- Thank you, - Thank you,
Ilma!
Do you have a minute?
Yes,
This is Ilma, She's a worker at my NGO,
But, she also wants to be a journalist,
She came here lately to film our interview,
Hello, I'm Leni,
Ilma,
She's a journalist for a newspaper company in Jakarta,
She's currently doing some research about Aceh's conflict that happened years ago,
Takako said your father was one of the separatist troops of The Free Aceh Movement,
He became crippled because he was tortured by the government?
That's right,
If you don't mind,
can I interview him?
Yes, As long as he doesn't mind,
Let me ask him first,
Thank you,
You don't eat?
No, I'm good,
- I can take some for you, - No, No, It's okay,
Thank you,
How's the food?
It's great!
Takako is really good at cooking,
Sachiko,
"Tsuki ga kirei desune?"
The moon is beautiful, right?
"Tsuki ga kirei desune?"
I can't see the moon,
What?
You're wrong! I don't understand,
Sorry,,,
Where are you from?
Aceh,
University?
University,,,
You don't go to university?
We can't afford the tuition,
But, I really want to study,
What is this?
Magic?
No, I saw this with my own eyes,
Laut is really mysterious,
I'm sure it can be a scoop,
This is unbelievable,
Can I borrow this?
I want to look at this more,
Yes, You can,
Do you want some coffee?
Thank you,
How was it?
Hm?
Kris,,,
What about him?
What happened?
Sorry, Never mind,
- Eh? - No,
Say it,
Tell me!
Your coffee is done,
You played dumb,
Takashi-kun, are you okay?
Eh?
You like her, don't you?
What do you mean?
You look at her differently,
Are those the pictures from the darkroom?
Yes,
Are they good?
They're good,
But I had no idea they would turn out to be black and white,
He should have told me first,
How was it? The result?
What do you mean?
Have you asked Sachiko out?
I don't want to talk about that,
She rejected me,
Why?
Well, that's what happened,,,
You must have said some stupid things again,
What do you mean by "again"?
Don't you remember what you said when you first asked me out?
No,
You said I would have a better life, You were talking to me as a tsunami victim,
You treated me like a fool, just like when you gave me those laptop, camera, and everything,
I'm sorry,,,
I didn't need your pity,
My house was swept away by the tsunami,,,
While your house was safe,
What could I do about it? It was a disaster,
I just felt sorry for you,,,
I'm going to Sabang next week,
You wanna come?
Sabang?
We want to gather some testimonies,
Laut is going to be there, too, So I want to ask around,
With Takako too?
No, She said she will be busy, So, I'll be replacing her,
Yeah, I'll come with you,
Of course! You're the cameraman,
I have raised my fee,
Geez, I have no money to pay you!
Good evening, Pak Bashari!
- Is Ilma here? - Yes,
Ilma!
Your father came!
Just go home without me!
Come with me!
- Stay out of it! - Sir, please!
It has nothing to do with you!
I won't go!
It's none of your business!
I'm coming in~
Sacchan?
Are you okay?
How is she?
She has a pretty high fever, I'll give her some antibiotics for now,
Let's see how it goes after she takes them,
Get well soon,
- Thank you very much, - You're welcome,
Just take a rest today,
I'll bring you lunch later,
Did Sacchan say something to you?
About her school stuff or anything else?
No,
She didn't,
Is that so?
Why?
Sacchan had quit university,
- Eh? - Half a year ago,
Although she seemed to be already on leave since a long time ago, she formally dropped out after filling out the form,
Did auntie tell you that?
She called me earlier,
But why?
Dunno~
She didn't do anything after she quit, right?
It seems that she didn't really do anything in particular,
She also seemed to have quit her part-time job, and just stayed at her apartment all day,
It's not because she's sick, right?
That's why when she suddenly wanted to come to Indonesia, her mom seemed pretty shocked,
It's really weird,
- Good morning, - Good morning,
How are you?
Much better now,
Let me see,
The fever has gone,
Your mom was really worried,
You must be hungry!
I'll make some rice porridge for you,
Ah, right!
Kris-san is here, Can he come in?
He keeps his eyes on you!
- You can come in, - Thank you,
- Good morning! - Good morning,
I heard from Takashi that you passed out yesterday,
Yeah, But, I'm fine now,
Yeah, you look fine,
Please have a seat,
Thank you,
- Should I go out? - No, no,
Just stay here,
Hey, can I ask you something?
Yeah, sure,
Is there a bunker around here?
A bunker?
Yes,
Like the one used during the war,
You know, for a lookout or something,
Ah, yeah,
We did see it a few days ago actually,
And there's one more, Why?
I was swimming in the ocean near this island,
and I saw it,
Island?
What island?
In my dream,
I was swimming,
And I saw a hill, And on top of it, there was a bunker,
A really old one,
That's probably Sabang, I guess,
Where?
It's,,,north of Aceh,
And there's a bunker that the Japanese military left behind,
I want to go there,
- Really? - Yes,
I have a feeling that's the place I've been looking for,
Okay,
How do I get there?
You can get there by the boat,,, on the dock,
I see,
And,,, actually,,,
I can take you there if you want,
Really?
Yeah,
Thank you,
- So, you're here? - Yeah,
But, I'll be off now,
Why?
My cellphone has been fixed, I'm going to take it,
- See you, - See you
Yes!
Where is Laut?
Eh?
I haven't seen him,
He went to Jakarta yesterday,
Leni said that it will be better to ask the Jakarta police to investigate too,
I see,
Will he come back?
Umm,, well, I wonder too,,,
If they can find out who he is,
he will probably never come back here,
I see,,,
Takashi-kun, is that your only camera?
Yeah,,, kind of,,,
Since when have you been you using that?
It's been five years, maybe,,,
You use that all the time?
Well, I got my previous camera from my relative, but it's already broken,
Relative?
I don't know either, It's from my mom's side,
How about Takako-san?
Where is Takako-san?
She's at work!
Breaking news! A mysterious man was found stranded on the beach in Banda Aceh,
He, who lost all his memories, has gained a lot of attention after creating a miracle,
Takashi-kun!
Look at the TV!
Good morning, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Hurry up!
I would like to introduce you to this guy sitting beside me,
Last week, he was found stranded on the beach in Banda Aceh,
This man, who came from the sea, can't remember his own name,
and even where he comes from,
The number you are calling cannot be reached,,,
Please leave a message,
But even so, he is able to communicate in any languages,
Including Bahasa Indonesia, and Japanese,
But, this is what makes him special,
although he's a bit childish and spontaneous,
he possesses some kind of magic power,
There's also a footage of him that I want you all to see,
Please have a watch,
I was so surprised when I saw this, So, I took my camera right away to film it,
I didn't expect to experience something like this in Banda Aceh,
the place where my research of tsunami victims takes place,
When the first time I saw it, I thought he was the embodiment of the spirits of the tsunami victims,
Yes?
What did the police in Aceh say about him?
I've met with the police and a few consulates as well,
and, they told me that this person might be the Japanese guy who disappeared in Aceh last week,
His name is probably Naoki Kuroda,
Any more questions?
- Miss, - Yes,
I want to ask Laut a question,
Laut, where do you come from?
From the north, maybe,,,
Anything else?
Here!
Laut, are you Japanese? Why are you in Indonesia?
I've never thought about that,
I was just strolling around, and happened to be in Aceh,
Can you show me the ball of water now in front of us?
What water?
Like in the video,
Is it a magic trick?
No, Sir, It's not a magic trick,
We have a proof from scientists,
And he just showed me this morning,
Oh, that! Sure,
I'm tired
I'm going home now,
Goodbye! See you later!
Laut!
- Laut? - Eh?
Can I eat this?
Yes,
Is it okay?
Eh?
We're taking Laut with us,
It's fine! We can't leave him at home anyway,
However, why?
What do you mean?
Suddenly want to go to Sabang?
No special reason,,, I just wonder if the landscape I saw in the photos is located there,
Is it okay if I don't come along?
Kris said he would guide me there,
Today?
It's a date,
Not bad, right?
Takako-san!
We're off to Sabang!
She can't hear you,
Takako-san!
She didn't hear me, huh?
Laut!
Where are you going?
Laut!
Let's go! The boat won't wait for you,
My mom is there, so, he'll be fine,
Let's go, Sir!
What kind of creature is Laut?
I wonder if he is not human,,,
I don't think Kris will come today,
Why?
Just my feeling,,,
Why?
Maybe,,,
Is that so,,,
But I think he'll come,,,
Who knows?
- Are you okay? - I'm okay,
I'm sorry!
You don't feel good?
No, why am I always like this?
I'll try to call him,
The number you are calling cannot,,,
Let's just go to Sabang with me,
Yes,
Someone has just called me a while ago,
He said that Kuroda, the man who went missing in Aceh,
has just arrived at Narita,
It seems that he visited Malaysia briefly,,,
,,,before flying back to Japan,
Sorry?
Laut?
He's not here anymore,
Has someone contacted you?
There's nothing here,
I know,
I will let you know if I find something,
What kind of creature,,,
,,,are you actually, Laut?
They said you're an alien, And they might be right,
Well,, It doesn't matter anyway,
You'd better hide for the time being,
Since you've appeared on TV,
Let's get on quickly! The boat is about to depart!
Huh? Ilma?
You arrived so early, I thought we were going to take the next boat,
Sachiko!
Kris?
Wait! Why?
I was waiting for you!
What? No way!
I didn't see you in the dock!
Yes, I was!
No, no, There's something mistaken here!
No, no,,,
Sachiko!
I thought you were not coming!
If you were coming with Ilma, you should've been honest with me!
No, Sachiko, please, It's not like that!
Hey! What's going on?
Nothing!
What? Were you two supposed to come together?
NO!
Yes, We were,
Wait, Who's telling the truth?
Ilma!
I wanted to tell you that I would go to Sabang with Sachiko,
I called you, And I left the message for you,
No!
Nothing! I didn't receive anything!
No way!
I called you like three times!
Try to call me now!
Sorry,,,
I called the wrong number,
In a way, you were planning to come with Ilma, right?
Listen Sachiko, I only invited Kris to come, because he was upset!
Because,,, Because you turned him down!
I never turned him down!
Actually yes, You kinda did,
At the party,
What? When?
That night!
I asked you to go out with me in Japanese,
And you said you didn't understand me,
"Tsuki ga kirei desune?"
The moon is beautiful, right?
What?
That?
Takashi told me to say that,
Well, it's because,,,
I heard that's how they do it in Japan,
It hurts,
- You have to slap him! - Sorry! Sorry!
If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!
- If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands! - If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!
If you're happy and you know it, let's do it together, If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!
- If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands! - If you're happy and you know it, stomp your feet!
If you're happy and you know it, let's do it together, If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!
Laut,,,
What kind of creature is he?
Dunno~
Look!
It was,,,
,,,indeed Sabang,
I heard about it when I was a kid,
But I forgot,
Dad told me he took these photos from inside a bunker,
Because I was still a kid,
I didn't know anything about bunkers and stuff,,,
It appeared in my dream the other day,
So, I knew what it was like,,,
Laut,,,
You were by my side when I had that dream, right?
Well, anyway,,,
Thank you, Laut,,,
The moon is beautiful, right?
Huh?
No,
What? The moon?
I want to swim!
What's that?
A funeral,
Are those children inside the coffins?
What happened?
The children died,
Four children were swept away in a river,
The whole village was thrown into an uproar,
It's bad!
Look at that guy!
I'm sure he's the culprit!
He was there in the river!
What's wrong?
They said,,,
,,,Laut killed the children,
- He pushed them into the river, - Why?
I don't know, Someone saw it,
That can't be true,
He's been with us all the time,
That guy pushed the children into the river,
I saw him on TV yesterday,
He's a monster!
- Wait! There must be a mistake! - He's a monster!
He was with us all the time! He never went to the river!
Laut!
- He's a devil! - That's not true, right?
It's time for me to go back,
What?
See you later!
Wait!
- Ilma! - Hey! He's running away!
He's running away!
- LAUT! WAIT! - DON'T RUN AWAY!
Laut!
Let's go back to the beach!
