Description

Shimada, a cynical and reckless university student, rebels against his strict upbringing and indulges in gambling, drinking, and delinquency. Frustrated with his oppressive father and seeking thrills, he drags his friend Ito into a night of vice. However, as his actions become increasingly destructive—manipulating, humiliating, and harming those around him—Shimada finds himself caught in a downward spiral where his arrogance and rebellion lead to inevitable consequences. The night of excess forces him to confront the limits of his power and the reality of his own self-destruction.
