We were born in Japan shortly after the war and have spent our lives working hard for our families during the period of high economic growth. Just because we've reached retirement age doesn't mean we're old—we're beginning to feel a desire for something more in our daily lives. Amid this, married woman Minami struggles with her relationship with her husband, who helps run his family's soba shop while also rushing off to night jobs. Burdened by the pressure of inheriting the family business, their married life is constantly strained. Although they still share intimacy at night, Minami, troubled by infertility, decides to seek treatment—and turns to Yamada for support.
