Kotaro Ogawa

A former Buddhist monk turned erotic filmmaker, Subuyan lives with hairdresser Haru and her two teenage children. Shooting two skin flicks per day, he somehow manages to stay out of the clutches of the yakuza, but real trouble starts when Haru discovers him lusting after her daughter.

In the suburbs of Tokyo, Ogawa, a 39-year-old programmer, lives alone in a 50-year-old apartment. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Ogawa has been working entirely remotely, rarely leaving his home or meeting other people. At first glance, his life might seem the epitome of solitude. Yet, his days are fulfilling, occupied by hobbies like playing the digital piano, online mahjong, and tinkering with keyboard switches. Despite his contentment with this solitary lifestyle, Ogawa has been a member of a marriage agency for the past three years. One day, through the agency's app, he receives a message from a woman named Maeda. Little by little, change begins to ripple through Ogawa's quiet life.
