Synopsis

In the middle of a bustling metropolis, how could it be that there is only one apple tree? No matter how much Hiroko jumps to try to pluck the apple, she cannot reach it. Fortunately, Koji passes by and plucks the apple for her. Koji is a rising young artist who because he lost his hearing at the age of 7, lives by only expressing himself through paintings. Furthermore, Hiroko is a young actress who practices acting with a drama troupe while holding a part-time job.

The two meet again and again in the park until one day, she learns that Koji is deaf. Through their initial attraction, Hiroko begins to learn Japanese sign language in order to communicate with Koji and as their relationship develops, several obstacles arise as well.
