Synopsis

A leaf tinged scarlet is just about to fall. In an old chapel the walls resound to a hymn and a serious and quiet nun is playing a reed organ. Her name is Mariko, a nun who never looks back the past or never expects something from the future, and just devotes all her life to God. When she reached the age of forty, the relatively early menopause was waiting for her. As he goes through the rapid change in her body, she experiences emptiness never felt before. Through deep and pleasant music, the film portrays how the nun thinks about her sexuality with a feeling of loss, and comes to accept a new way of living
