Eureka (2000) Part 1

Eureka is a drama, set mainly in rural Japan, and is shot in widescreen sepia tone. It tells the story of a young boy and girl, Naoki Tamura and Kozue Tamura (Masaru Miyazaki and Aoi Miyazaki, who are real-life siblings) who are on a bus when it is hijacked by a crazed killer. They, along with the bus driver, Makoto Sawai (Koji Yakusho), are the only survivors and flee together. But upon their attempted return to their normal lives, Makoto becomes a suspect in a series of murders and the children become orphaned. These numerous unfortunate events bring the three, along with the orphans' cousin, Akihiko (Yoichiro Saito), back together, forming a family and working toward reconciliation from the shared hijacking experience.

Eureka won the FIPRESCI Prize and Prize of the Ecumenical Jury at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival and won the Singapore International Film Festival's Silver Screen Award in 2001
