Shiro and Keita didn’t manage to enter university and are stuck in their hometown delivering newspapers. Shiro persists on finishing a film they started, but Keita is not very enthusiastic.

A world-class marathon becomes the catalyst of clashes between the guests of a women’s and a men’s dormitory. Armed with toy machineguns and pistols, the young people challenge each other in a breathless race through the city streets. For one of the girls, the battle ends on the beach, where she watches an amazing event take place.

A young man dressed as a samurai walks along a road lined with flowering cherry trees. Then, no longer in costume, he talks with the camerawoman who is filming him, he writes a date and an hour (May 1, 1985, 10 a.m.) on a blackboard and then bursts out in rage at the fact that his girlfriend, Hiromi, has been missing for three days. A few moments of their love story are retraced, before returning to the gloomy desperation of the young man, who walks into the darkness of a night illuminated by neon signs and goes into a long monologue of love, directed at the girl.

A story of the restrictions of family life, the desire to break free, restlessness, helplessness and the fear of becoming an adult.
