The screenplay was written by Ryo Takada, who also wrote the screenplay for "Sokonomi de Hikari Shine". The two directors of the TV drama "Gugu datte neko de aru" (Gugu is a Cat) have teamed up again for this film. --Saori (Erika Sawajiri) has become accustomed to a life of resignation, unable to become the person she thought she wanted to be. The only person she can open her heart to is Yoshio ( Ryo Yoshizawa ), a Russian blue cat. As Saori cuddles with Yoshio, he believes that he is Saori's "human lover". One day, an unsuccessful painter, Tamotsu Goto ( Kazunobu Mineta ), who is called "Van Gogh", appears in front of Saori and changes her daily life. On the way to Saori's house, Yoshio gets lost and ends up at "Nekosutebashi", a place where stray cats gather... Can one man and one cat find a way to live their own lives through encounters with Van Gogh, stray cat Kiiro (Komuai) and other unique cats?
