Not even women interest him very much. Until one day a lady walks into his bar and gets through to him. She invites him home, but once there Ryo is asked to have sex with her daughter while she watches from the sidelines. Almost unfazed, Ryo does as he is told and before he knows it, he is offered a job as a male escort.

Frank and direct drama about a boy who becomes a call boy in order to get a grip on his emotional life. Well acted, beautifully shot and intruiging from start to finish. Miura has been making interesting films for a while now, he finally took the next step and made a small masterpiece. Probably a bit too direct for some, but definitely a worthwhile drama.
