Asami, a novelist who spent part of her childhood in California, reunites in Tokyo with Ann, who has lived through divorce and surgery, and Kazu, a lyricist, after roughly half a century. As the three meet, drink, and talk, memory, aging, and feelings that cannot be neatly named as either love or friendship begin to mingle, quietly illuminating the time accumulated in their lives.

Memories and love loosened by time quietly stir a reunion in later life.
