Towako has a lot of free time, and when
she’s not busy berating some poor retail
worker over the phone, she’s switching
between two modes – having sex with
her new beau, and craving it from her
missing ex-lover. Thrown in amongst this
spiritual orgy is Jinji (Sadao Abe), her
unlikely roommate and caretaker, who
begins to lurk in the shadows everywhere
she goes. This, in conjunction with the
mysterious circumstances surrounding
her ex-lover’s disappearance, has her
reconsidering whether his disappearance
is really such a mystery after all.
