The movie promises an intriguing and heartfelt story: Kaoru Tono stumbles upon a rumor about the Urashima Tunnel, which is said to defy the laws of space and time. If you enter the tunnel, you can find your heart’s deepest desires but at the cost of years of your own life. One night, Kaoru finds himself standing before a tunnel that eerily resembles the one from the rumor. His thoughts turn to his sister, Karen, whom he lost in an accident five years ago.

To his surprise, Kaoru is joined by Anzu Hanashiro, the new transfer student, who offers to help him experiment with the mysterious tunnel. But what does Anzu want in exchange from Kaoru? And what will be left of him after the tunnel has taken its toll?
