Spoilers ahead

Bob, a 55-year-old actor who is famous yet feels bored and somewhat oblivious, travels to Tokyo to shoot a commercial worth $2 million. Upon his arrival, he is welcomed by a group of overly friendly Japanese crew members, but soon receives a fax from his wife, Lydia, reminding him that he forgot their son’s birthday. The following morning, Bob encounters 25-year-old Charlotte in an elevator crowded with expressionless Japanese individuals. Despite the alluring chaos around him, he focuses on recording a whiskey commercial, seemingly unaware of the emotional currents swirling nearby.
