In a ramshackle hut by the river, Sho gradually begins to understand the life of the aunt his father spoke of.
As a child, her aunt, Matsuko Kawajiri (Miki Nakatani), used to dream of Snow White. She became a middle school teacher, but was fired due to a misunderstanding that she couldn’t explain, and then she moved in with a writer, who committed suicide because he loved her too much, and left her last words: “I’m sorry for being born.
This incident was a great blow to Matsuko; after that, she cohabited with the writer’s career enemy until she couldn’t bear the temptation of going to the other side’s wife, and as a result, she was miserably abandoned; she also became a bathroom girl, and even killed a man and went to jail, but she never gave up the hope of life no matter whether it was intentional or unintentional.
