The language of music can conjure many images. While one woman soars through the sky with wings made of silvery doves and a lone female awaits her lover in a hotel lobby, a goldfish dreams of becoming a human. But whether giant robots are fighting proxy battles or a birdman’s arrow morphs into an ice skater, the music continues to communicate in its own unique way.

Young love remains in the hearts of so many; and it is this love that is explored within nine stories. A man meets his first love again -- a wild girl from his youth that was into the Beatles; a high school Rugby manager meets the team's star again after so many years; a salaryman falls for a mobster's girlfriend; and another leaves his small-town love to live life in a big city, and meets a girl that resembles her ten years later. Relationships aren't always as simple as just loving someone; sometimes it takes time to learn how to love.
