Blaming her for the death of his brother, Tatsuo and his gang of thugs try their best to drive the woman out of town. Eventually, Hide's days become a routine of delivering leftovers to a local pig farmer to make some money, being bullied by children on the streets and occasionally beaten by Tatsuo's men. Although it has become almost unbearable, she remains unimpressed by any of these ordeals. One day, a young man named Yasuo comes into town to work in the local quarry. His physical weakness and his stuttering make him an easy target for the workers as well as Tatsuo's men who tease and bully him. As a proof of his manhood, he is forced to sleep with Hide, but the situation creates a connection between the two of them, revealing a dark secret and the reason Yasuo had to escape from where he came from originally.
