A melancholic portrait of emotional disconnection within marriage, where small gestures fail to bridge the gulf of loneliness and neglect between two people sharing the same space.

Moemi is not overly pleased when Yukio brings home a couple of turtles to keep her company. Although Yukio works at home as a writer, Moemi feels neglected and desired a dog or a cat, but neither is allowed in their apartment.
