[ Story ]
The latest film from Terada Yasunori, who received the Best New Director Award from the Japan Director's Guild for My wife is a Filipina, which dealt with discrimination against foreigners in Japan.
Tetsuya lost the use of both arms due to cerebral palsy and now lives with two other people who help each other in the Spirit Symbiosis Home. Tetsuya uses his legs to do everything, including eating, using computers and phones. Tetsuya's girlfriend, Miho, and he have grown closer since they met at a friends' wedding, and now they are seriously considering marriage, but Miho's mother is opposed to this. They try to convince her, but Miho's mother refuses to even discuss the idea, because she is worried about her daughter's future. At the same time, Tetsuya is trying to get a driver's license. He has great difficulty controlling the handle with his legs, but he finally manages to pass the test. Finally, Miho's mother relents and begins to accept the idea of the marriage.
