==Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©==
Middle school teacher Yoko Moriguchi's ([[Takako Matsu]]) life comes crashing down after the murder of her 4 year old daughter. Eventually Yoko Moriguchi suspects some of her own students to have been responsible for her daughter's death. An elaborate plan for revenge then ensues, including forcing students to drink HIV tainted milk ...

==Notes==
# Based on Kanae Minato's 2008 best selling novel "Kokuhaku" (has sold 700,000+ copies to date).
# After reading the novel "Kokuhaku" director [[Tetsuya Nakashima]] wanted actress [[Takako Matsu]] to play the main role. Enough so that he said if [[Takako Matsu]] would not play the role he would not have made the film.
# Filming began October 24th, 2009.
# Auditions were held for potential actors to play the students. Of which 34 were selected out of 1,000.
