[ Story ]

Wacky adventure developed and helmed by Miki Satoshi, known for his quirky story worlds in Adrift in Tokyo and It's Me, It's Me, in collaboration with film critic and producer Mark Shilling.
Unsuccessful screenwriter Kato (Narita Ryo) is on a trip to the mountains when his rental car breaks down, leaving him stranded. He gets a helping hand from Keiko (Maeda Atsuko), a sultry married woman working at "Ideal Mart," a mist-engulfed convenience store. But Kato is already caught up in a parallel universe divorced from reality.
