Yoko Asagiri is a gifted pianist who composes a heartfelt piano sonata to express her love for a young man. While listening to the piece on a Walkman, she passes by the object of her affection, too afraid to confess her feelings. In that moment, the world around her shifts and she is pulled into a fantastical realm. There, a friendly talking dog greets her, and as they converse she notices a shimmering reflection of her own world high above in the sky. It becomes clear that the haunting melody has a strange power: whenever the song plays, she can travel between these two worlds.
