Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka

In this rambling story about life in the slow lanes, a couple get married and while the wife wanders off for awhile, several small, unrelated incidents occur, and then she comes back. Yasu (Tsunehiko Watase) meets Mayumi (Masako Natsume) when she visits his curiosity shop and their initial attraction develops into a live-in love affair. When Mayumi leaves for awhile, the scene shifts to a small bar that exchanges hands, the remembrances of a dry-cleaner, and a woman who spends one night with Yasu before she leaves to get married, then Mayumi returns and life in the curiosity shop is back to normal.
