A gift for drawing allows her to move to Tokyo to study medical illustration, and although the more privileged girls in her rooming house ignore her, she finds satisfaction in the precision and purpose of her work. Sayako is the first roommate to pay Akemi attention, and they quickly become inseparable—Sayako drawn to Akemi’s humble origins, so distinct from her own insufferable, wealthy family; Akemi attracted to Sayako’s rebelliousness and her aspiration to be a painter.

Together they attend ‘happenings’, encounters arranged by two enigmatic artists, Nezu and Kaori, in arbitrary locations, intended to free them from their worldly attachments. Following a devastating betrayal, Sayako disappears, and Akemi becomes determined to find her—and in the process, must newly face herself.
