The long-awaited dramatization of Kiyoshi Shigematsu’s million bestseller and winner of the Naoki Literature prize, Second Chance Chauffeur begins with a man taking a ride in a car as he seeks to embark on a life do-over. But the drive sends him toggling supernaturally between past and future where he encounters his father. Both of the same age, the two forge an odd relationship that is neither father-son nor two friends. Kazuo (Hidetoshi Nishijima) is a staid and serious man who lost his family for failing to notice a dark illness that afflicted his wife. His father (Teruyuki Kagawa), on the other hand, was a freewheeling, passionate entrepreneur who built many successful businesses in the course of an illustrious career. Together, the two embark on a spiritual journey that prompts Kazuo to mature as a father and reach a place that will provide encouragement to all.
