When his father flees from debt, carefree college student Osamu sees his life turn upside-down. Expelled from school and evicted from his apartment, he becomes one of Japanā€™s many ā€˜net cafe refugeesā€™, barely scraping by each day with temporary and part-time work. Even though heā€™s still in Tokyo, his circumstances drive him to see and experience his home city in new ways. Trying to survive, Osamu gradually acquaints himself with the ā€˜invisibleā€™ spaces occupied by the wanderers and homeless of Tokyoā€¦ people just like himself.
