Narumi is on bad terms with her husband, Shinji, when, one day, Shinji goes missing. He comes back a couple of days later, but he seems like a totally different person, and he is now gentle and tender. He goes for a walk every day. Meanwhile, journalist Sakurai covers the story of a family that was brutally murdered, when an unexplained phenomenon takes place.
A hauntingly quiet transformation turns a husband into a stranger, leaving his wife to navigate a domestic landscape that feels both tender and deeply wrong. This unsettling shift in personality creates a slow-burn mystery that lingers long after the credits roll.
