A sensual fantasy about a middle-aged man who receives a phone call from the dead and tries to rebuild his life. Under the direction of veteran director Akira Fukamachi, who is being reevaluated, popular actress Yoko Satomi gives a sexy performance as the Zenkoto Fighter wearing costumes and items that recreate the period. Hiroshi (Tomohiro Okada), a 53-year-old dull office worker, is cheated on by his wife (Yasaki Wakamiya) and is shunned by his daughter (Yurika Iwashita). After being fired, Hiroshi drifts into a tunnel where he gets on the phone with his comrade Mariko (Yoko Satomi), who was supposed to have died 30 years ago, and dreams of a different life with her.
