Minami is a 31-year-old model whose career is fading, whose fiancé just ran off with another woman, and whose life is in free fall. She shows up at her runaway groom's apartment to confront him — and instead finds Sena, his shy, piano-obsessed roommate who can barely hold a conversation. Through a series of misunderstandings she ends up moving in, and what begins as the most awkward cohabitation in Tokyo becomes a story about two people in the intermission of their lives who discover that sometimes the best things happen when you stop trying. The defining Japanese romantic drama of its generation.
