The weather is unusually gloomy and rainy every day, as if to suggest his future. He lives his days in isolation, but finally finds work as a writer for a mysterious occult magazine. Then one day, Hokoda meets Hina on a busy street corner. This bright and strongwilled girl possesses a strange and wonderful ability: the power to stop the rain and clear the sky...
The film will star Kotaro Daigo as Hokoda Morishima and Nana Mori as Hina Amano. (Note: last name romanizations are not confirmed.)
