Following an unexpected visit, Nami, an elderly Japanese-Okinawan-Brazilian woman, reveals to her granddaughter Midori secrets and childhood traumas from 1940s Brazil that had nearly faded from memory. Meanwhile, her other grandson Jun begins exhibiting strange behavior. A dark chapter of Japanese immigration in Brazil blends with contemporary political events, just as grains of glutinous rice merge when making mochi, a Japanese treat symbolizing unity.
