A turtle leaves home and discovers that freedom without connection is just isolation with better scenery. The film moves at the speed of a creature that has nowhere to be, which means you stop rushing too. By the end, a simple walk becomes the quietest argument for why we need the people we're trying to escape from.

Kamesuke is a pet turtle who one day decides to head out by himself. The outing should give him everything he wished for, yet he can't shake the sense that something is absent. The slice of life film stays with its small hero as he sets off alone and carries that feeling of something missing along with him.
