[ Story ]

Unique science fiction film based on Mishima Yukio's 1962 novel. With the substitution of the social issues from that era like the Cold War and nuclear weapons to the contemporary themes of energy and climate change, it is an epic tragicomedy directed by Pale Moon's Yoshida Daihachi.
Weather forecaster Juichiro (Lily Franky) one day suddenly realizes he's from Mars. Then his daughter, son and wife have their own similar realizations. They try so hard to save the endangered planet Earth but things get crazy on the way…
