Directed by Japanese filmmaker Hikari, the film follows Phillip, an American actor who moved to Japan for work and finds himself down on his luck in his career, and unfilled in his personal life. Out of options, he accepts a job with a rental-family agency, performing stand-in roles for strangers who need someone to fill emotional or social gaps in their lives.
