Three stories of undying love from acclaimed Japanese filmmaker Takeshi Kitano. Bound by a long red cord, a young couple wanders in search of something they have forgotten. An aging yakuza returns to the park where he used to meet his long-lost girlfriend. A disfigured pop star confronts the phenomenal devotion of her biggest fan ... Three stories delicately intertwined by the beauty of sadness.
Matsumoto and Sawako were a happy couple, but meddling parents and chase for success push the boy to a tragic choice. Hiro is an old Yakuza boss. Thirty years ago he was a poor worker who left his girlfriend to pursuit his dream of success. Now he's back in the park where he used to meet her... Haruna passes her days looking at the sea, her beautiful face is bandaged. Not a long time ago she was a successful popstar whose life consisted in hosting tv shows and signing autographs. Nukui is perhaps her most devoted fan, and today he wants to prove it...
