Spiral of Hollow Echoes

In the fictional dual-nation state of Hinokuni, a brutal police assault on a Korean-Japanese youth sparks a national crisis. Before the state compensation verdict, nine individuals tied to the case wake up trapped in a derelict underground courthouse. A distorted electronic voice announces their entry into a "Private Tribunal," forcing them to reenact the original crime. As the trapped members are killed one by one, the terrifying truth emerges: violence never brings justice, it only traps souls in an endless, spiraling cycle of hatred.
