Nezumi
ねずみ
In 1965 Tokyo, a man wanders the city's outskirts, observing the lives of those around him. He encounters a woman who keeps rats as pets, finding a strange connection in their shared isolation. Their interactions are brief and distant, reflecting the emotional void that defines his existence.
As he drifts through the urban landscape, the man confronts the emptiness of his own life. The rats become a symbol of the unseen and ignored aspects of society, mirroring his own feelings of being trapped and unnoticed. The story explores themes of alienation and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world.
