Matsumoto Rika’s father was the guru of Aum Shinrikyo, the religious cult responsible for the deadly Tokyo subway sarin attack in 1995– a mass murder that shocked Japan to the core. Rika was brought up within the cult. Although she was just a child when the crimes were committed, she has been exposed to discrimination and exclusion from society, even after her father was put on death row and executed in 2018. Schools denied her admission, despite her passing entrance exams, and banks refused to open accounts. She is tormented by remorse for victims of crimes she was not involved in, and at the same time torn between memories of a loving father and his hateful public image. Her trauma has driven her to the brink of suicide at times, and she struggles to carve out her own life and identity. She eventually takes on a new challenge to become recognized not as “his daughter” but as “Matsumoto Rika” herself.Shot over six years, this film is a story of a woman’s personal growth in the face of social injustice.
