About the film
Five cellmates face one challenge: who can describe the most delicious meal they’ve ever eaten? The stakes are high: they’re betting their osechi, their New Year’s meal, the tastiest meal of the year. The winner is the one who makes their cellmates’ mouths water the most. But for the newcomer, warm memories seem out of reach, he was abandoned by his parents as a child. Still, the competition awakens long-forgotten memories inside him.
