Kanta is 19 years old, he dropped out of school and has a boring, tiresome job. His rather dull life seems to take a positive turn after he becomes friends with his colleague Shoji and student Yasuko. But Kanta is not made for keeping with social conventions, so new problems arise. In the latest film by NIPPON CONNECTION veteran Nobuhiro YAMASHITA, leading actor Mirai MORIYAMA delivers an impressive interpretation of the irritating but loveable misfit.
