About This Movie

Midsummer's Equation is a 2013 crime and drama film directed by Hiroshi Nishitani. Its leading cast includes Masaharu Fukuyama, Yuriko Yoshitaka and Kazuki Kitamura. It runs for 2 hours 9 minutes. It belongs to the GALILEO collection. Its original language is Japanese.

Synopsis

Masaharu Fukuyama reprises his role from 2008's "Suspect X," playing the physicist-cum-detective Manabu Yukawa. The scientist-sleuth arrives in an oceanside town to speak on a panel. But when a man turns up dead outside the inn where he's staying, Yukawa begins to unravel the connections that tie the victim to the activist daughter of the innkeepers, and a precocious boy who first appears on a train—and keeps popping up. It's a Sherlock Holmes mystery with an environmental twist, and one that should please fans of a classic whodunnit.
