La película se centra en la historia de una joven, Yasuko, que se vio sorprendida por esta lluvia radioactiva que cayó en los alrededores de la tristemente célebre ciudad. Las posibles consecuencias de su contacto con la radiación han dado lugar a un sinfín de habladurías entre los pretendientes de la joven: ¿estará enferma?, ¿podrá tener hijos? Su familia rememora aquellos días aciagos, tratando de conjurar el peligro que la acecha.

The longer term visitors at the inn meet together to discuss the hairpin incident. These include a grumpy Professor, a young couple Mr and Mrs Hiroyasu, and an old man staying with his two grandsons.
