Synopsis
Une petite ville d'une région montagneuse. Lycéenne, Machi n'a pas encore trouvé sa voie. Un jour, elle s'amuse à inventer des histoires fantastiques avec ses copines : chacune à sa manière poursuit ces récits imaginaires qui tissent entre elles un lien invisible... Pour les adultes de la ville, les choses sont tout autres. Ils évoluent dans un monde parallèle : eux ont fait leur vie et sont plongés dans les réalités du quotidien. Adolescents et adultes semblent suivre côte à côte deux trajectoires qui ont peu de chances de se rencontrer. Et pourtant, des similitudes entre les deux parcours commencent à poindre. Un jour, une tempête provoque un terrible éboulement sur un terrain de criquet et découvre une forêt souterraine, que l'éruption d'un volcan a gardée intacte depuis des siècles. Peu à peu, réalité et imaginaire se rejoignent, passé et avenir se mêlent, esquissant bientôt un monde fantasmatique où tout devient possible.Actors

Although the sisters were very close, it is apparent that Mika lived in the shadow of her older sister's accomplishments. One night, Mika is almost raped by a stranger while walking alone outside.

The film follows five simultaneous, loosely linked plot lines, that intertwine and scramble together. A man (Tadanobu Asano) keeps killing his wife (Reika Hashimoto) and burying her in the woods only to find her alive, furious, and waiting for him when he returns home. A suburban family's life is disrupted when the father (Ittoku Kishibe) is permanently hypnotized into believing he is a bird and tries to learn how to fly. A trio of aimless youth pass time by burgling houses. A murderous advertising executive (Kyōko Koizumi) tries to imagine ideas for commercials. The stories clash together through the intervention of a thuggish hitman (Vinnie Jones) and his translator (Yoshiyoshi Arakawa).
