[Machine Translation] Mitsuki Takahata and Masao Kusakari star in this film! A 68-year-old subordinate arrives at a 28-year-old office worker's door! This is a human drama about a unique duo with an age difference of 40 years, set in a long-established Japanese confectionery company. --Mayuko Kudo (Mitsuki Takahata) is an office worker who was headhunted for her achievements at her previous job and is now leading new business development at Yodo Honpo, a long-established Japanese confectionery company. Since the first character goods she worked on were a hit, there were high expectations within the company for the next product, and she was under invisible pressure every day. As if to push her over the edge, she suddenly finds herself with a subordinate who is 40 years her senior. Kazuo Niimoto (Masao Kusakari), who comes as a subordinate, had once worked at Yodo Honpo until retirement and is now living a retired life. He has been living alone with his wife and has been feeling the urge to work again as a salaried worker, when he is approached by the young president and decides to work for Yodo again. However, when he is assigned to the new business development department, he is puzzled by the fact that his "boss" is a woman younger than his daughter. A boss and a subordinate, 40 years apart in age, gender, position, and experience. Can this surprising encounter help the duo grow into the strongest partners? Booklet enclosed.
