A single mother lives with her son Minato in a suburb with a large lake and works as a teacher. In recent years, she has been harassed by her students and children, who actually lead a peaceful life. One day, a fight breaks out at school. But what at first seems like an ordinary fight between children develops into something completely unexpected - with a series of complaints that develop into a major problem involving society and the media, until one stormy morning the children suddenly disappear without a trace and no one knows what to do.
