Synopsis
For the past five years, Sawako (Hikari Mitsushima) has been a Tokyo
resident. She’s now in her fifth office job, and is dating her
fifth boyfriend. Her current boyfriend, Kenichi (Masashi Endo) is
also her boss, but though she lives with him and his daughter Kayoko
(Kira Aihara) from a previous marriage, she is feeling increasingly
stressed out with her career and love life situation.
When she hears that her father, Tadao (Kotaro Shiga), who runs a
freshwater clam processing business in her hometown, has fallen ill,
Sawako has her own reasons for delaying going back home, but she
reluctantly returns at Kenichi's insistence. As Kenichi has recently
left his job, he uses this opportunity to accompany Sawako, and
brings his daughter along to, as she returns home…
