On a break from his routine, a young man named Yohei returns to his hometown for the first time in a while. After paying his respects at his older brother's grave, he skips visiting his parents' home and instead heads straight to the house of his aunt, Anna Machimura. With Anna's husband—Yohei's uncle—recently deceased, their long-overdue reunion slowly awakens deep feelings within him. Drawn to her increasingly, Yohei finds himself captivated by Anna's charm, her graceful and warm presence, and her own striking beauty, all of which begin to shape in his mind the image of an ideal woman.
