A deeply disturbing psychological thriller that uses the mundane setting of fish shops to mask extreme depravity, exploring predation, manipulation, and the corruption of trust.

When fish shop owner Shamoto's teenage daughter Mitsuko is caught stealing, a generous middle-aged man named Murata helps resolve the situation. The man and his wife offer to have Mitsuko work at their opposing fish store. Shamoto soon discovers that something far more sinister lives behind Murata's friendly demeanor.
