Director Teruya, who is active as "Gori" in the comedy duo "Garage Sale" and also works earnestly on filmmaking, is joined by Okinawan-born actress Ruka Matsuda, who continues to make great strides as a young actress in TV series "Chimudotsu" (2022, NHK), a historical drama "Hikaru Kimi e" (2024, NHK), and musicals, among others.

When she receives the news that her father's life is in danger, she reluctantly decides to return to her hometown on Iejima Island, Okinawa Prefecture. Mihana, who has never made any attempt to repair her relationship with her father, recalls the precious time she spent with her parents in the island's natural environment, and finds an important diary that her mother had kept before her death. She discovers her mother's true feelings and a "lovely secret" that only her father and mother know...
