[ Story ]

A Japan-France jointly produced film co-directed by Igarashi Kohei of Hold Your Breath Like a Lover and Damien Manivel of A Young Poet. It was screened at the 74th Venice International Film Festival.
Just before the break of dawn in a small town nestled within a valley in Aomori, a father (Kogawa Takashi) tries not to wake his family as he quietly goes about preparing for his job at a fish market. However, his 6-year-old son (Kogawa Takara) is awoken by the noise. After his father leaves, the boy draws a picture of a fish with his crayons. The next morning, he deviates from his route to school, heading instead to the fish market in hopes of giving his father the picture he drew.
