Do some people have a special talent for suicide? Director Shingo OTA takes us on a journey through the life and death of one of his close friends, young musician Sota MASUDA. Much more than just a documentary bio-pic, the film is a very personal and formally elaborated take on topics such as failure and success, love and friendship, memory and guilt.
