A quiet, uneasy voyeuristic slide into fixation, where intimacy and isolation blur behind a paper-thin wall.

Tagline
Some fantasies should never be fulfilled.
Overview
When Ryo, a young magazine reporter, moves into a new apartment he is greeted by the passionate sounds of his astonishingly beautiful neighbor Satsuki. Realizing the wall dividing their apartments is paper thin, the captivated journalist begins to eavesdrop on every detail of the girl next door's life: her conversations, her bubble baths... her breathless cries.
