There is a girl who wants to kill herself on her birthday. She happens to order her birthday cake at a shop where unique pâtissier who is always spinning a daydream at work. Two social unfits come across unintentionally, which cause miracle to save the hopeless girl.There is always a way to get out of the worst situation, which might be caused by someone you don’t even know. I believe in a miracle by chance. Originally, I shot this film for Sendai where the serious earthquake happened on March 11th, 2011. I donated 3minutes and 11second version to the film festival in Sendai, and this is the complete version of it. I wanted to express deepest wish for all of us in Japan can find a hope to smile again after the tragedy.
