The Height of the Coconut Trees

Just before their honeymoon, Sugamoto and Aoki break up. Sugamoto decides to bury her lost emotion by going on the determined honeymoon trip alone. The journey's end is a remote town famous for being a suicide hotspot, a place where the spirits of those who took their own lives roam around without finding a way to the afterlife. In this chaotic space where humans and ghosts meet, traces of the past abound, but maybe all these give them the strength to start a new chapter in life.
