An up-and-coming young actress returns to her hometown for a film shoot. Although she doesn’t mention it to anyone, her director knows that she was a member of the legendary theater troupe “Rashinban” (compass) back in her high school years.

Four years earlier, Rumi, Ririko, and Kaname invited a girl from a different school, Ran, into their new theater group. Eventually, one member winds up dead, but the person responsible had set up the perfect alibi.

In the present day, the actress is presented with shocking evidence as the details of what seemed like the perfect crime are slowly revealed and a plan for revenge is enacted.
