Introduction
Since finding elderly men with some problems and meaning habits, Sawa, a helper does housework and care work for them, and enters into their life lightly. The elderly men who lost whereabouts in society and the family begin to open their heart, too. Moved by Sawa, who communicates with them with her entire heart and spirit, their "afterlife" near "death" starts to shine again.
