Synopsis
Shinpei is a country boy alone in Tokyo, maybe gay, maybe not, invited to a party by a girl he hasn't seen in a while. It turns out to be a wake for Takachi, a gay guy who appeared in straight porno tapes; he was apparently murdered by a casual pick-up. During the night, Shinpei pieces together fragments of Takachi's story: his friendship with a beautiful rent-boy, his move to Kochi, where "the boys are like angels," his return to Tokyo... and his heartbreaking plea for gentleness on the last night of his life.
