A woman spends her days with a sadistic man and decadent eyes. The man, with eyes drowning in drugs, constantly demands abnormal sexual acts from the woman. Eventually, after the man commits murder, the woman tries to escape this wrong way of life. The film depicts a world adorned with sex and violence. In the corners of the city, an exclusive individual builds their own colony. Imperfect human relationships, born from incomplete communication, unfold under the slow passage of time. The shadow-based imagery envelops the entire film more than necessary, in order to highlight the dark side of the human heart.

The man was seeking pleasure beyond sex. And the ultimate ecstasy he sought was pace poles and the death throes of a person. The man drags his friend Shinichi and his girlfriend Akiko into his world of madness, gradually corrupting their relationship and manipulating them. Then, he murders Shinichi in front of Akiko. Akiko's mind and body collapse from the shock, and the man toys with her for his own pleasure. However, Akiko's mind gradually becomes abnormal, and she enters a world where madness can be sanity.

In the summer of 1998, the filmmaker went home to Takasaki to film the birth of his brother and sister-in-law's child. Days go by and the child is still to be born. With time on his hands and no one to talk to, the filmmaker finds the phone number for a telephone date club, and calls up with an earnest de- sire: I'd like to talk to a girl. While following the conventions of film-diary form, at some point the filmmaker falls into a times pace tunnel of false memory.

The director films his friends and an UFO at Chichibu.

Focusing on a woman addicted to sex and drugs in a corner of the city, this film depicts an exclusive and cold world on a monochrome screen. Attempting to fuse experimental film and dramatic film, this work exposes raw violence and eliminates explanatory expressions. It depicts the weight of the distance between a man and a woman that deepens after a small incident.

This is a film about a medium approaching extinction, an 8mm documentary film about a vanishing 8mm cinema. Blending two genres, the science film and the personal film, and benefiting from the participation of multiple generations of cineastes, it is a reflection upon the original cinematic experience.
