- Okutsu Ayako, who has just been married to a teacher husband, meets up again with an unexpected person at a dry-cleaning shop to which she brought her clothes to be washed. He is Asao Keisuke (Kawamoto Junichi), a former junior high school teacher who fell in a forbidden love with Ayako, then a student fourteen years ago.He had been fired from his position as a teacher and has established a household income as a skilled laundryman. While they both go about their daily life in the same community as if there had been no relationship between them, the distance between them is gradually narrowed by the extremely sensual memory that was created in a forest where they met repeatedly back then.
