Shigemori Tomoaki (Masaharu Fukuyama) is a lawyer. One day, he received a very difficult commission. The defendant was named Misumi Takashi (Yakusho Koji), who was accused of committing murder and cruelly burning the body with fire. In order to save Takashi from the death penalty, Tomoaki began to sort out the case in detail. However, what puzzled him was that Takashi's motive for murder was always hidden in the fog. Even Takashi's own discussion of the motive has changed repeatedly. In order to find out the truth of the case, Tomoaki visited the deceased's wife Mitsue (Yuki Saito), and Mitsue's strange attitude deepened Tomoaki's doubts. Sakie (Suzu Hirose) is the daughter of the deceased. Her appearance finally made the case clear, but these clues led the whole truth of the case to another path.
