Young Shihio once unsuccessfully auditioned for a film role. She has long since buried her dream of becoming an actress when, seven years later, she surprisingly gets a second chance. The director of yesteryear has not forgotten her and now desperately wants to cast her in his new film. What does he see in the young woman? A talent for acting? A vulnerable soul? Something true? Shihio's everyday life is marked by routine. Lonely, she lives with or rather next to her boyfriend in a small flat. Who is she anyway? What is her true self? Or is she merely a vessel into which the director can pour his idea of her?

During World War II, three Japanese holdouts who have been living on a remote Pacific island for years are now faced with a choice when they receive news that the War is over. Private Ito is happy at the news, but his commanding officer, Lt. Takeda, believes the news to be an American trick, attempting to lure them out from hiding, and demands that they continue living on the island. This film is inspired by true events, in which Japanese soldiers held out on islands for several years, even decades, after World War II had ended.
