Directed by Masaya Tsutsumi

A man and woman are taking part in a One Coin English Cafe where participants can casually enjoy English conversation for a small price. Miki lies about her work and background while participating in the conversation to satisfy her need for approval. Kenji is a young actor who plans to work in the U.S. but is restricted from traveling there. The two of them start playing a game where they act like different people. There are two rules: “Stay out of each other’s life” and “Don’t lie in Japanese.”
