A scriptwriter who leads a drunken life of self-depravity is depicted in this drama, the directorial debut of Kobayashi Masahiro. The film won the Grand Jury Prize at the 8th Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival.
A man (Shinsui Sansho) whose wife and child were murdered in a convenience store robbery, spends his life going from one woman's home to the next.
