Shou's father Norio finds his son in a rather meaningless existence in Tokyo dominated by alcohol and porn videos. Having left home two years earlier to pursue life as a musician, Shou has left his band and his girlfriend has left him. His father asks a favor, that Shou clean out the apartment of his aunt Matsuko, who he says led a meaningless life until her murder at the age of 53. The apartment is filled with garbage bags and is even more unkempt than his own apartment has become, and he becomes intrigued with his aunt as details of her life are surfacing.
A roller coaster of emotions, Memories of Matsuko has the ability to change from the happiest, most joyful scenes of all, to the saddest and darkest place in a heartbeat. If you didn't think a murder mystery could be hilarious, you're about to be proven wrong. Wacky and sparkling, sad but also full of laughter, Matsuko is a genre-bending mix of everything between the silly and the sensible.
