In a crowded Tokyo suburb, four teenage girls indifferently wade
their way through a hot, smoggy summer. When one of them, Toshi,
discovers that her nextdoor neighbor has been brutally murdered,
the girls suspect the killer is the neighbor's son. But when he
flees, taking Toshi's bike and cell phone with him, the four girls
get caught up in a tempest of dangers that rise from within them as
well as from the world around them. Psychologically intricate and
astute, Real World is a searing, eye-opening portrait of teenage
life in Japan unlike any we have seen before.
