Wakae is a 15-year-old girl who lives in a fishing village, under the same roof with her alcoholic father and stepmom. Her mother had died years ago. She spends her nights at a rundown bar, sharing drinks and cigarettes with the lowlife drunks. She has nowhere to turn and no one to talk to until she is reunited with her childhood friend, Saburo, who brings warmth to her heart.
