Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©
When Satoshi (Ken Yasuda) was little, his mother Akiko (Mitsuko Baisho) always took care of him. She was gentle, but strong mentally. 2 years ago, Akiko was diagnosed with cancer. Now, it is Satoshi's turn to say "It's okay, because I am with you. You will survive." He takes care of his mother, while Satoshi's girlfriend Mari (Nao Matsushita) gives him support. Akiko passes away.
One year later, Satoshi, his father Toshiaki (Renji Ishibashi) and his older brother Yuichi (Jun Murakami) start new lives. Around that time, Satoshi revives a present from his mother.
