What is a family? What is blood? This story is about two fathers and a son. They are waiting for their beloved woman, Takami, to wake up from a coma. Takami's son, Koki, is a high school student, kind and calm, always being with two best friends, and eagers to wake his mother up. His rigorous father Yoshiharu is a businessman, staying at the hospital day and night, and is about to lose his job. Even they try hard, nothing changed. So Koki searched and found his mother's ex-husband Gota, ex-thug (Yakuza) who is living with Misato, an owner of a bar. Gota is always drunk and wandering around. Koki visits Gota at the bar to ask him to speak to his mother thinking Gota's voice might wake her. But Yoshiharu does not admit his son to get closer to Gota, whom he considers Koki's biological father but has kept it in secret to his son. One day, Koki hears his father talking a secret to his mother in a coma and becomes violent against everyone. Both fathers try to get Koki to back in line by the very different way. Through the struggles, each one begins to realize what a family is. This project is the first film by the director Fumihiro Imai, who has been working as a gaffer and assistant director. To create his cinematographic world, he has written the script and asked the professional staffs he has worked with to join in this project. DP Nakazawa's camera captures the downtown Tokyo and subtle transformation of each person beautifully.
