How it feels

A TV producer in Tokyo navigates his marriage to Masako and their young son, while his college friend Yamazaki, a womanizing lyricist, begins an affair with Masako even as he continues a relationship with his girlfriend Riko. The film follows the emotional entanglements and quiet betrayals among these interconnected people.
