Synopsis
Akira, son of government minister Machiko, is in a gay relationship with Toru, one of her political supporters. These two young men have decided to undertake the first same-sex marriage in Japan, despite a rigidly enforced legal ban. They are guided through this political and emotional minefield by Masaru, a hard-of-hearing lawyer who stands firmly behind them. But who exactly is Masuru and what is his relationship with the intrepid duo?
