خلاصه داستان : داستان فیلم درباره "آکی و نائوکو" دوستانی که از دوران کودکی با همدیگر هستند. آنها غوطه ور در زندگی خانوادگی شان هستند ، "نائوکو" اکنون ازدواج کرده است ولی "آکی" هنوز مجرد است و .....

Aki and Naoko are childhood friends who are drifting apart as adults. Immersed in her family life, Naoko now has a husband and daughter; Aki, on the other hand, remains single and is on leave from work due to a personal crisis. The plot might sound familiar but it has never been told like this. The director Kusano Natsuka stages the interactions through an actors’ table-read and, as the lines are repeated, the scenes gradually develop into on-location conversations. Moreover, she repositions the dramatic peak of the story to the beginning: Aki has murdered Naoko’s daughter.
