A middle-aged oddball suddenly wants to travel west with a sleeping bag and some found adult magazines; the only friend of a high school sophomore otaku is a boy who only wants to die; a useless dad, along with his son, sneaks into a high school campus at night to steal sandbags and surprisingly encounters a ghost? And there's also a lonely young man working at a DVD rental store. These ordinary yet intricate stories are filled with soul; they seem casual, yet seamlessly piece together colorful and friendly chapters like a patchwork quilt. It distills dry Japanese humor from the everyday lives of common folk, yielding an indescribable touch of genius that makes one’s lips involuntarily curl into a smile.Three heavyweight multi-talented figures, Naoto Takenaka, Takayuki Yamada, and Takumi Saito, jointly adapted the early representative work of the "lonely genius manga artist," Hiroyuki Ohashi, striving to capture the original spirit authentically. The whole film is shot in Gamagori City, Aichi Prefecture, the hometown of the manga artist, with full support from both government and civilians! Several short stories are interwoven, featuring Rihō Yoshioka, Ryūhei Matsuda, Shōsuke Nanbu, Jun Kunimura, and others in a luxurious collaboration both in front of and behind the camera, creating an amusing and captivating piece.
