Sara wasn't able to hide her upset at first sight when Takeuchi came to the family restaurant where she worked to have an interview. On the first working day of Takeuchi, after preparing for the opening, Sara and Takeuchi were just waiting for the restaurant.


Director Statement


I wrote this story from my own experience of losing my mother with suicide. This film will be never completed as personal and introspective, and it will be more a universal film for all who have an experience of losing an important person to look forward from their loss. I hope many people have a chance to see this film.
