Synopsis
A woman believes she hears the voice of God in her mind and lives according to God's word. Her 16-year-old daughter, Sakurako, looks at her mother with a cold, cynical gaze. One day, the woman witnesses a young man being beaten and kicked in a bar, receives a kind of revelation, and brings him home. The woman, who also believes she is dying of cancer, sees this as a fated encounter, but her balanced life doesn't last long. The man, who had seemed like an intangible presence, takes concrete action for the first time, and the story abruptly collapses...
