A Japanese scientist, ostracized for his obsessive quest to prove mermaids exist, relocates to Australia and stubbornly continues his research in isolation. His routine is disrupted when a Japanese student visits, bombarding him with unsettling questions about the reality of mermaids, how he survived a mysterious oceanic encounter, and why his memory remains blank.
