Story

A road movie about a woman who goes on a journey carrying her dead best friend Mariko’s bones.

Tomoyo (NAGANO Mei), an office worker, learns from the television news that her best friend Mariko (NAO) had died falling from an apartment building. Tomoyo knew that Mariko had been terribly abused by her father since childhood. She steals her best friend’s bones away from the father and runs. Mariko had also been physically abused by her partner while she was alive—she constantly had her life ruined by men. As Tomoyo remembers her memories with Mariko, she heads towards the sea, where Mariko had always wanted to go. While on the road, Tomoyo meets Makio (KUBOTA Masataka) who she involves into her final journey with Mariko, as she carries her bones.

A film adaptation of an award-winning and popular manga that vividly depicts a story of female friendship. The director is TANADA Yuki who is known for her humanistic films. Nagano, who plays Tomoyo, won an acting award at the Japan Academy Film Prize in 2021 and is one of the top working actors today both in skill and popularity. NAO, who plays Mariko, is a talented actor who works in both television and film.
