Plot
Mayumi is pestered at school. He is narcoleptic, someone with a chronic sleep problem. One day he decides impulsively to commit suicide and climbs on the school roof. One of the teachers, Murai, is also on the roof. The film suggests a rape scene. Then Murai says he hopes he has given Mayumi a reason to continue living: hate. Mayumi abandons his plan. On top of that he is now interested in Murai and starts following him. Murai decides to stop teaching. In the meantime, Mayumi meets Marii, the girlfriend of his hated classmates. Then a strange three-cornered relationship develops between Murai, Mayumi and Marii.
