A son and his immigrant mother in Madrid wait for his father to return. A Basque woman and a Japanese man meet in San Sebastian and he shares his stories about home. A drifting Japanese man returns to his family for Obon to welcome the spirits of the deceased. These fragmental stories of each daily life in different places of the world imply their reminiscence of home.
