In the land of snow monsters and steam baths, complex characters as diverse as the Japanese terrain experience lust, loss, and love.
A young boy performs a daring rescue. A woman loses her old life to face an uncertain new one. A teenager suffers through a cataclysmic event. Love blossoms at the Tokyo Olympics. A rent boy's hardened heart melts when he meets a sexy, bouyant stranger. Much like the Japanese Islands themselves, there is commonality to be found among myriad differences. The poet, the musician, the artist, the tortured mother, the bankrupt father, the protective brother -- they all know that there's a new day awaiting them after the moon slips sideways down the sky.
