Synopsis

Nestled within a sprawling general hospital in southern Chiba Prefecture, a convenience store has thrived for three years, operating around the clock. Its shelves hold an unexpected array of goods—from healthier snacks to casual apparel—and it remains perpetually bustling. Here, amidst the sterile environment of a medical facility, life unfolds in its rawest form. A young man recently avoided a brush with mortality within its walls. Another patient makes a daily pilgrimage for the morning paper.
