Following his death from stomach cancer, a group of eccentric acquaintances—including fellow gamblers, pachinko employees, and former drinking companions—gather at the funeral of a man who left his wife and sons thirteen years prior.

Stories shared at the funeral paint a more nuanced portrait of a flawed but ultimately human individual.
