This film is a meditation on the memory of unrequited love that everyone carries around with them. Teen-aged Hiroki has a crush on a girl at his school, but is content to watch her from afar. At home, his mother nags him to study and practice piano, while is father, a monk, bangs on a drum all day. A mysterious and perhaps ghostly girl then appears in his life, who is equal parts silly and amorous.

There are some funny scenes, but mostly the film dwells on Hiroki's confusion as a teenager, that awkward stage of life when a person comes to terms with who they are and who their parents are. Curiously, everything is filmed through a very amber-colored filter. Bittersweet.
