Memoirs of a Murderer

There were 5 peculiar murder cases in 1995 where the movie begins. The murderer would get someone close to the victim to witness how he would kill the victim with a rope, but he would let the witnesses speak to the media about how the murders happened. Ito plays the role of Makimura, the police detective who was in charge of investigating the serial murders but failed to catch the cunning murderer and his superior ended up being killed as well. A man named Sonezaki claims to be the culprit for the 1995 murders and even publishes a book titled "Watashi ga satsujinhan desu", which is about the cases. Despite the disgust towards Sonezaki's actions, the intensive attention showered on him by the media and the internet makes him the talk of town.
