Heart, Beating in the Dark (闇打つ心臓, Yamiutsu shinzo) is a 2005 film directed by Japanese director Shunichi Nagasaki, partly a remake and partly a sequel to his 1982 film of the same name.

The film has three threads running through it, and also includes footage from the 1982 original throughout:


One is the story of a couple who are on the run after killing their baby. This is a largely a remake of the original 1982 film.
Another thread shows the present-day couple from the original film as they meet again many years after the original events.
The third thread is supposedly documentary footage of the making of the remake, showing in particular the feelings of the original actors about the characters they played in 1982.
Cast members include: Noriko Eguchi (Yuki), Shoichi Honda (Toru), Kaori Mizushima (Ritsuko), Shigeru Muroi (Inako), Takashi Naitō (Ringo) and Taro Suwa (Shimamoto).

Après quinze ans de vie commune à Lisbonne au Portugal, Nicolas et Marie sont sur le point de divorcer. Ils décident pourtant de se rendre ensemble à la cérémonie de mariage d'un de leurs amis à Paris. Dès leur arrivée, ils annoncent la nouvelle de leur rupture, ce qui provoque l'étonnement de leur entourage. Durant deux jours et trois nuits dans leur hôtel où ils font lit puis chambre à part, le couple, en manque de sommeil et de capacité de lutter pour sa survie, se déchire en reproches réciproques dans un huis clos. Au cours des pérégrinations nocturnes de Nicolas ou diurnes de Marie, chacun vit intensément la séparation qui approche et se voit tenté par une nouvelle rencontre. Marie décide de partir seule à Bordeaux où elle a vécu et finalement sur le quai de la gare, où Nicolas l'accompagne, ne se résout pas à monter dans le train.
