Kanako joins a high school where she is reunited with her childhood friend, Eijun. Following the idea of Seiryo, Kanako's elder brother, they form a band.

The following year, they perform at a local music event, Yaeyama Band Tengoku, under a new band name.

Shirayuri Club is an amateur band started in 1947. They still are playing wonderful music in various occasions. The documentary captures their first tour to Tokyo.

The voice of what appears to be a film school teacher echoes on the screen. A film school teacher's voice echoes on the screen: "To be able to do anything is the same as not being able to do anything. The film is shot by the protagonist. There is a dizzying kaleidoscope of different perspectives, angles and movements, all based on the motif of the sphere. As if to counteract the teacher's harsh criticism and his own inherent anxiety about his own creation, the protagonist begins to turn the camera again, without hesitation. There is no coherent story, but rather an exposition of images that speak eloquently of the director's own mental landscape.

A certain part of ourselves that we cannot see, represented by the "back of the front", is the key to understanding ourselves. To eat, to excrete, to reproduce... what is the meaning of life? Often, when we lose sight of this, we become ghosts with substance, wandering the streets. A familiar nursery rhyme melody, a door that suddenly appears in a river or in the grass, an Okinawan woman. An anthology of images using experimental techniques such as multiple exposures and elaborate filter work.
