Movies like to depict foreign objects destroying other people's homes.

When someone else invades an ordinary family, the house is on the verge of collapse. Alfred Hitchcock's `` Shadow of a Doubt, '' in which the heroine suspects that her uncle is a murderer, Pier Paolo Pasolini's `` Teorema ,'' in which a stranger enters the house, and a maid enters the house. Movies have been fond of depicting this type of story, such as Kim Ki-young's `` The Maid ,'' which depicts the tragedy that occurs due to unforeseen circumstances.

Even if I look at the reality, I am strangely attracted to people like Miyoko Tsunoda in the Amagasaki incident who preyed on other people's families one after another.I want to know how they took advantage of other people's families and controlled them. Perhaps there is a universal desire. Even in families where conflicts are constant, family members may suddenly come together when it comes to problems, but it is extremely difficult to infiltrate a family that is protected from outsiders by strong blood ties. However, in ``Harmonium,'' a mysterious man enters the family's house and gains the trust of the family.

Toshio (Koji Furudate) runs a small small factory and lives with his wife Akie (Mariko Tsutsui) and their 10-year-old daughter. Yasaka (Tadanobu Asano), who seems to have had an affair with Toshio in the past, appears, and Toshio begins to make his wife work as a live-in factory worker without telling her anything. Yasaka, who has good skills, naturally begins to teach the daughter, who is busy practicing the organ before the recital, and the daughter and wife begin to feel uneasy about the presence of a mysterious man in the family. disappears from
