A mysterious, dreamlike adaptation of a short story by Hyakken Uchida, shot on 16mm. Shusaku loses his grip on reality when he sees his own face in that of his deceased brother. Trying to find himself, he drifts between his own memories and those of his sibling, slipping further and further into his subconscious.
