Sota and Rakuto, two young men who work late night shifts at a bar, have a secret: serving drinks isn’t their only means of living, they are also drug dealers, illegally trafficking marijuana. But they’re not gangsters, more like wanna-be gangsters. Lacking motivation and a plan, they’re at the bottom of the bucket, and they are always tripping over their past. A calculative Yakuza forming a new street squad, a single mother and her son struggling from domestic violence, and a friendship on the brink. From the criminal world to space rockets, despair to hope. Unpredictable outcomes await at Sota and Rakuto’s fate.
