INTRODUCTION
It was a treasure including gold bars which is said to have total current value of one trillion yen, obtained by the Japanese army before Japan's defeat in the war. During the occupation era, it was confiscated by the office of the Supreme Commander of the Allied Powers (General Headquarters/GHQ) and used in absolute secrecy for the post-war restoration and anticommunist scheme through a part of the Japanese government. It's called the M-Fund. There are many scam cases where the mysterious fund was mentioned and businessmen who is having trouble in finance gets fooled even at the present time. A theory that says M-Fund has never exist since the beginning was established, but...
The idea of making a movie about the M-Fund was proposed more than ten years ago. The director, Sakamoto Junji and the original author, Fukui Harutoshi, who worked together for "AEGIS" completed the script at the beginning of last year.
"M-Fund really exist," - those were his -M-fund specialist swindler- father's last words when he was murdered. Succeeding his father, Mafune Yuichi became an M-Fund swindler and there has always been a question in his mind. Who killed his father? Does M-Fund really exist? Then, a man who introduce himself as a messenger from the "foundation" appeared before him. "Foundation" is the common name for a secret Japan-America organization which manages the M-Fund. Mafune didn't take any interest in what he said in the beginning, but as he get involved in strange situations one after another, he was fatefully drawn into the M-Fund battle. To protect the secret of M-Fund, secret agents from the Ministry of Defense doesn't hold back in using their force. A mysterious man called "M" made a request to Mafune "I'd like you to steal the M-Fund from the "foundation",". Though he is a member of the "foundation" himself, he is going against them. What is his true identity? What's his true purpose...?
Mafune's adventure and journey starts here. It's not a journey of small scams that lightly mentions M-Fund, but it's a journey of a big gamble, opposing global capitalism that controls the world.
The cast lineup includes Sato Koichi as the lead who starred Sakamoto Junji's "KT" and "The Short Films - Minna, Hajime wa Kodomo datta/Tenboudai", Katori Shingo & Nakadai Tatsuya who worked together with Sakamoto in "Zatoichi THE LAST", Moriyama Mirai who played a difficult role in "Kita no Kanaria-tachi", Mizuki Arisa who was the lead of "Bokunchi", young talented actor Odagiri Jo, veteran actors Kishibe Ittoku and Ishibashi Renji, Korean actor Yoo Ji-tae, American actor Vincent Gallo, so many exclusive actors join the movie cast.
The filming started in the extreme cold weather, Khabarovsk-Russia, continued in a farming area in Kanchanaburi-Thailand which temperature could go over 35 degrees Celcius in daytime, and America, specifically the United Nation's headquarter in New York.
Even after the danger of economy and capitalism separation was revealed due to the Lehman Shock in 2008, the world still works with the rule of improving prosperity with market manipulation. Not to mention it's a system that only focus on a handful of people's fortune on this earth, though it's called 'global'. "JINRUI SHIKIN" is about using M-Fund to suggest a new capitalism and change this rule. Designed with this mystery, Japan is sending a transmission of suggestion to the world for the sake of the future.
STORY
1945. A quay in Ecchujima, Tokyo Bay. Men in military uniform were opening one of the wooden boxes stacked inside a hopper barge in the dark. There are 4 gold bars inside the box. The 600 tons of gold bars are the hidden treasure obtained by the Japanese army who didn't want to admit defeat in the war. Captain Sasakura Masami went to collect them, but he didn't return them to the army and sunk them into the sea. His purpose was to be ready for the battle with "Capital" that will conquer the world. An American army's spy, Harry Endo (Toyokawa Etsushi) was watching them.
2014. Mafune Yuichi (Sato Koichi) live by repeating M-Fund Scam. Working together with Sakata (Terajima Susumu), his yakuza friend, they were about to start the negotiation but they realized the person they were about to fool is strange. When they tried to take their name cards back, it was already too late. Detective Kitamura (Ishibashi Renji) was there. This didn't happen only once or twice. Then, a man who introduce himself as Seki Yuki (Moriyama Mirai) appeared before them saying "A member of the "foundation" is waiting for you. Come with me,".
The name of the "Foundation" is "Japan Foundation for Intercultural Exchange". It was formerly "Japan Foundation for International Economy Research"... Mafune has heard that name before. His father went after the M-Fund for his whole life. He was run over by a car and his scrapbook and notes were scattered. He saw that organization's name on his notes and used the name when he fools people with the M-Fund scam. "Does M-Fund really exist?"
As if led by Seki's words, Mafune visited the "Foundation"'s building. At that moment, Takato Miyuki (Mizuki Arisa) and her subordinate, Tsujii (Miura Masaki) were attacked by a group of big, muscular men. Takato is a member of a secret organization inside the Ministry of Defense. Seki came and helped Mafune out of the trouble. Miyuki chased after the escaping two, yelling, "Where is 'M'?? He will be erased if things keep going like this!!". The two of them disappeared into the darkness.
The next morning, Seki took Mafune to a certain building. A man named Honjo Kazuyoshi (Kishibe Ittoku) was waiting for them. Honjo said to Mafune, "I want you to steal the M-Fund, the total amount is one trillion yen. Your reward is five billion yen,". Another man came from behind him. "There's a secret meaning hidden in the M-Fund's 'M' that no one knows...". That voice came from the person who made the request to steal M-Fund, he introduced himself as "M" (Katori Shingo).
M-Fund was once used for Japan's post-war restoration, but it has degraded and becoming an investment fund for people to buy money with money. He want Mafune to steal the fund and change this bad rule of money economy. For the sake of saving the world -- Mafune was bewildered with M's words. But as he was interested in the big amount of reward and he was told "If you succeed, I will tell you the secret of M-Fund,", also he felt the same about the world's meaningless money game, so he accepted M's request.
M-Fund is managed by a 'foundation' lead by the board chairman, Sasakura Nobuhiko (Nakadai Tatsuya), which is based in an investment advisor company, but the true rights is held by an investment bank in New York.
With the theory of "Buying money with money", Mafune and co thought of and unprecedented money game that involve the whole world. The first place they visited is the Hedge Fund in Russia which is the Russian branch of the "foundation". The chief representative was Kugenuma Eiji (Odagiri Jo). Kugenuma failed in a forward trading. With accounting process, he's hiding the great sum of debt and loss. Mafune took advantage of this condition. Their plan goes smooth. But one mistake can result an open seam. Meanwhile, Harold Marcus (Vincent Gallo) of the New York investment bank noticed their moves. Harold immediately sent out an assassin called "the liquidator" (Yoo Ji-tae) to watch over Mafune and Seki, and chase after them at the same time.
How will Mafune and co end? What is M's true purpose? What is the real meaning of M-Fund?

So, NO, they're NOT siblings!!!!! (ya olohhh, Alhamdulillaaah, wakakakak)
I'm so sorry for the mistake I made, lol! I read the BoD word and immediately thought she's also the child of the BoD chairman!!! XDDD
So Nobuto's father is the superior of Miyuki's father, I guess. From the STORY details, seems like Miyuki knows M's true identity and his real purpose. So they might know each other well in the past.
Uh-oh... Nobuto and Miyuki could very well be... CHILDHOOD FRIENDS! lol, assuming their fathers had working relationship since they were young. Or maybe they're ENGAGED...kyaa!!
