    Violet Gentile, a 27-year-old girl, leaves her life in New York to accompany her boyfriend, Yuki Nakamura, when he learns terrible news that affects his family. Overnight, she begins a new journey in Hakone, a small town west of Tokyo, where she is forced to adopt customs very different from her own. However, what will make her reconsider whether she has made a good decision will not be the misunderstandings due to the language, but the isolation that she will begin to feel after knowing the bitter face of the most traditional Japan, embodied, mainly, in Haru, the older brother of Yuki. As she adapts to that life, she will discover that what she thought she knew is not as real as she thought; that her convictions had been nothing more than self-deception and that her prejudices had not allowed her to see who the man sleeping in the room opposite hers, at the other end of the garden, really was.
