This dry comedy from director Nobuhiro Yamashita begins with two amateur filmmakers, Tsuboi (Keishi Nagatsuka) and Kinoshita (Hiroshi Yamamoto), stranded at a train station in a small Japanese town. They are expecting to be met by Funaki, an actor, but when he doesn't show up they become accidental tourists among the unscrupulous locals. On a beach, they meet a quirky girl named Atsuko (Machiko Ono), and go on a trip with her that ends abruptly when she suddenly disappears, leaving them to continue waiting for Funaki while their money runs out.
