Synopsis
Aspiring actresses Nozami and Lana belong to the same talent agency, share an apartment, and have just auditioned for the same part. Nozomi is a country girl who has come to Tokyo with big dreams of becoming an actress, while Lana’s sharp tongue and flashy appearance is completely at odds with soft spoken, demure Nozomi. Waiting for the phone call that will decide their future, petty arguments escalate into hysterical violence, bringing the girls’ hatred of one another to the surface as they confront the reality of their empty, unfulfilled lives.
