    • Synopsis
    • In Kitanomachi, ten unique characters navigate their identities and relationships. Saaya, a single mother and former idol, is infatuated with her new boyfriend, while her daughter Jewel questions their bond. Stalker Yasuo and his mother Fujiko, a fraud victim, add mystery. Action actor Shunya and his eerie girlfriend Monami, Yakuza member Wakeno and his crab-loving cat Malena, and reformed Yakuza Bunta, watched over by his deceased lover Ageha, all intersect. Inspired by the phrase "something like," their stories reveal the beauty and complexity of human connection.
