A film reflecting the 20th century. A story about holy fortuity and the nothingness unbeknownst to me. Life is agony and emptiness. I miss someone. I desperately miss her, but that is nothing. This film is such a story. Woman1, wearing a Buddhist fylfot (卍) shaped medallion, drinks. She eats a meal and then vomits. She puts more alcohol into her empty stomach.

Sometimes Woman1 brings tears to her eyes, but she receives her with delight upon her return. This nineteen-year-old girl, Woman2, saying she holds nothingness in her arms, gives Woman1 all of her heart. As she lies upon Woman1’s body, she quells her agony. A young senator happens upon Woman1, contorted with pain on the street. He takes the sick woman to a deserted house -- not a hospital, not his home. He sees nothingness in the house, in the woods around it, and in her. In the end he resigns and renounces his family. Holding nothingness in his heart, he returns to the earth. Woman2 sheds tears and Woman1, being drunk, whispers: “Life flows like tears and tears flow like life...”
