[ Story ]

Shuhei is a vice principal at a regular high school in Kitakyushu, Fukuoka, living with his wife and 20 something daughter. One day, Shuhei goes to a nursing home to visit his father, who suffers from dementia and tells him, "I'm screwed. What am I gonna do now?"
The other day, Shuhei leaves his favorite restaurant without paying. His former student and the waitress of that restaurant, Minami, catches up with him to claim the bill. However, after taking out his wallet and staring at Minami, he ruefully tells her, "I'm ill," and leaves without paying. Same as his father, he was facing the reality of being diagnosed as dementia.
"Dreaming in Between" captures a few days of a man who is facing unacceptable reality, trying to reassess his relationships with his family, students and old friends, contemplating how he has lived and how to go on with his life.
