Manga artist Sawako (HARU Kuroki) suspects her husband of having an affair—but instead of confronting him, she beings drawing a new manga. Her new project mirrors her own life, following a manga artist whose husband is cheating. As her real-life husband anxiously reads each chapter, he starts to question his wife, himself, and the very line between fiction and reality.
