When his wife and daughter leave him, he joins the support group that gradually transforms his world. Filmmaker Shun Coney, known for tackling social issues through his independent productions, collaborated with singer-songwriter and first-time actor Ryoichi Higuchi, who himself lives with Parkinson’s disease.
