The Suicide Song (Densen Uta), directed by Masato Harada, begins when a teenage girl named Kana inexplicably commits suicide at her high school while humming a strange song. Rumors start to fly around the school that her death was actually caused by this song, further perpetuated by the editor of a tabloid magazine named Riku. More suicides occur after this until Kana’s friend Anzu finally unravels the mystery of the curse, as well as the song’s true meaning.
