The deliciousness of the red bean paste she makes becomes popular, and the shop quickly prospers. However, it is revealed that Tokue had Hansen's disease in the past, and the rumor spreads, causing customers to stay away... Director Naomi Kawase, who has garnered attention from around the world, followed up "Still the Water" with this human drama. Based on the original work by Durian Sukegawa, the film is set in a dorayaki shop and delicately depicts the connection between the hired manager and the elderly woman who comes to work there. The elderly woman carries a painful past and strives to live even after her human dignity is taken away. Kirin Kiki plays the heroine with depth and nuance.
