Every 'drama of death' unfolds in a terminal care unit

The drama is about five men and women who have gone off the rails in their lives and are trying to start their lives over by playing the role of a fake family based on the underworld part-time job case.

Hirayama seems utterly content with his simple life as a cleaner of toilets in Tokyo. Outside of his very structured everyday routine he enjoys his passion for music and for books. And he loves trees and takes photos of them. A series of unexpected encounters gradually reveal more of his past. A deeply moving and poetic reflection on finding beauty in the everyday world around us.
