Storyline

The video artist Rintaro Yakumo is participating in a new TV project. Set in the Shimane Prefecture, it's a mystery drama production that also serves as a PR for tourism. The pilot version was filmed 10 years ago and suspended for unknown reasons. Now three filmmakers are competing to see who will be able to finish the production once and for all. Yakumo finds out that he is competing against two famous directors and heads over with his staff, ready to start recording when a mysterious murder occurs.
