Before working at a photocopy machine company, a 40-year-old man starts his mornings with a gulp of oshiruko. He respects the teachings of past great business leaders and contemplates the meaning of work every day. However, such daily life suddenly crumbled. In a desolate Tokyo, within a shaken office, the true nature of people is revealed. Now, what is being questioned is──the pride of a salaryman. A business survival story that continues to question "What is it to work?" and "What is it to live?" in extreme conditions!
