Inspired by a missing persons list, documentary director Kubota Nao spent eight years completing this human drama. Tanaka Yuko plays the lead role, in her fourth collaboration with the director, in addition to his dramatic film debut Homeland.
A beautiful port town on a remote northern island. Thirty years have passed since Tomiko's (Tanaka) husband disappeared. She is still waiting for his return, without knowing the reason for his disappearance or his condition, when Nami (Ono Machiko) appears looking for her husband, Yoji (Ando Masanobu), who disappeared two years before.
