The story of a thirtysomething woman (Riisa Naka) who's at a delicate juncture in life; alone, flat broke and to top it all nine-months pregnant. Her folks think she's in California living the high life with her baby's Gl father. In fact she's in Tokyo, searching for a purpose, and eventually finding one in the ramshackle working-class alley where she grew up. The place reeks of destitution and bone idleness, but Mitsuko's infectious get-up-and-go attitude soon compels the locals to roll up their sleeves and restore the alley to its former glory.
