Scene: Mashike, a city on the Japanese island of Hokkaido. Nobuo Honma is a 63-year-old sake producer. He has lived with Yasuo since his wife died two years ago. Yasuo is his youngest son to whom he has entrusted his trade. Every day Nobuo takes a walk that takes him to a fish breeding center, located in the mountains. He fills his loneliness by carefully watching the development of thousands of minnows dumped in the pool. The second anniversary of his wife's death is approaching. Nobuo insists on the presence of Ryoichi, his eldest son whom he hasn't seen for a long time. Nobuo and his two sons, along with his associates, gather for the commemoration. Unspoken feelings resurface and collide with each other.
