An old man and a fox who wears a child's face meet over persimmons in the mountains, and neither of them speaks about what they actually are to each other. The entire story lives in that silence, in the things they choose not to say. This is a show about loneliness recognizing loneliness, about two creatures who understand each other because they have no one else to understand, and it does not waste a single frame explaining that to you. By the end, you are not sure if the fox changed the grandfather's life or if the grandfather was always waiting for something to leave him. Autumn here means something specific: not beauty, but the exact moment before loss becomes permanent.

An elderly man lives alone in a mountain village in autumn. A little fox, eager to eat persimmons, changes itself into a boy and turns up as the old man's grandson. The story follows how the two meet and how they eventually part, set against the scenery of a lovely autumn village. A single-episode drama OVA, it offers a quiet, gentle tale of an unusual companionship in the countryside.
