Kantoku Shikkaku plot

In 1996, porn director Katsuyuki Hirano began a relationship with actress Yumika Hayashi who worked in the same industry. The two set off on a bike ride from Tokyo to Rebun Island, an island off the coast of Hokkaido, the northernmost part of Japan. The first week is very tiring for Hayashi and she cries a lot. A month later, the couple finally arrives at their destination. The two then break off the relationship, but remain friends until she dies on June 26, 2005 in Tokyo at the age of 34.
