[ Story ]

Theater group Potudo-ru's director Miura Daisuke writes the story, script and directs this film adaptation of the group's play that won the 50th Kishida Kunio Drama Award. Set at an orgy, the story coolly and comically exposes carnal desire brought out by human idiocy.
A room in a fancy downtown apartment. The evening orgy kicks off with eight men and women meeting for the first time, including an unemployed guy (Ikematsu Sosuke) who pays the 20,000 yen party fee with money from his parents, and a female college student (Kadowaki Mugi) whose run-of-the-mill appearance hides a voracious sexual appetite.
