A quietly unsettling meditation on authenticity, longing, and the commodification of human connection, told through the intersection of a rental-family business and a child's need for a father.

Love is a business at Family Romance, a company that rents human stand-ins for any occasion. Founder Yuichi Ishii helps make his clients’ dreams come true. But when the mother of 12-year-old Mahiro hires Ishii to impersonate her missing father, the line between acting and reality threatens to blur.
