On rainy Sunday daybreak, Mr. Son throws up sleeping pills that he had before going to bed. He sees elegant one butterfly which comesin from the cold and the wet by chance. After that he attempts to depart from the everyday existence.
Life is complicated and hard to someone. If we expect the world that is elegant like wing act of butterfly, this may be fantasy. Everybody is looking away but I thought that clearness life and death are not so far away. Looking at the person in circumstance which is not universal much more than us, I expect we may see universal truth extremely.
