A musical film by Takeo Kimura, renowned as one of Japan's foremost art directors, known for his work on Seijun Suzuki’s films. The story unfolds through a chain of abstract imagery and metaphors. An old queen is trapped within the rocks, alongside a woman in black and a white angel, who, like a young girl, governs the red thread of fate. Is the woman in black the queen’s alter ego, her daughter, or her past self? She finds herself drawn to a man playing the violin in a café.
