Nitobe and Sakamoto, lifelong friends, work at the reception desk of a capsule hotel. Nitobe is fascinated by philosophy and crustaceans, while Sakamoto grapples with suicidal thoughts. The hotel’s diverse clientele includes a Finnish mother searching for her missing child, a woman on the run, and a researcher studying tiny freshwater crustaceans. Though sharing the same space, their lives remain separate and unconnected, existing as isolated individuals within the unique environment of the capsule hotel. The film explores themes of life, death, and the quiet desperation of human existence.
