The contents of each traveller's heart are a mystery known only to themselves Trundling through the scenic countryside of Kyoto and Osaka is the Hankyu line, a burgundy-coloured electric train that has been carrying its commuters to their destinations for decades.

Over the course of a single journey in springtime, and the return journey six months later just as the leaves begin to fall: - a young man meets the woman who happens to take out the last copy of the library book he was about to borrow; - an angry wedding guest dresses in a white gown to upstage the bride; - a university student leaves home for the first time; - a twenty-something finally grows the courage to walk away from an abusive partner - a widow learns independence, as she and her granddaughter discuss their new dog.
