La pazienza di Yaoyoi, dolce e graziosa, si è rotta oggi in modo improvviso. Davanti al marito Kenji, che ha dilapidato tutti i suoi risparmi, Yaoyoi ha reagito strangolandolo con la cinghia dei pantaloni. Kenji ha tentato di difendersi, ma non ha avuto tempo. La scena è stata tragicamente buffa: il suo collo si piega all'indietro mentre le mani cercano disperatamente aiuto. Un uomo che beve, gioca, ignora i figli e picchia la moglie non merita di vivere. Dopo che Kenji è rimasto immobile, Yaoyoi ha controllato il suo collo per le pulsazioni e ha trovato solo silenzio. La macchia bagnata sui suoi pantaloni l’ha sorpresa, facendole ridere della propria forza e crudeltà. Con l'aiuto delle amiche Masako e Yoshie, ha trasportato il cadavere a casa di Masako, smembrandolo e gettando i resti in vari bidoni. Questo straordinario thriller segue quattro amiche—Yaoyoi, Masako, Yoshie e Kuniko—che lavorano in una fabbrica di cibi precotti. Insieme, scoprono il gusto della rivolta e il fascino del crimine, illuminando un mondo in cui la tradizione si rompe, proprio come la pazienza di Yaoyoi.
