In Kyoto, it is in the middle of summer and the O-Bon festival is approaching. Everyone eagerly awaits this annual event, because it is well known that wishes come true. Most of them want wealth, beauty and health. Except Nashi, a homeless man who pollutes the air with his body odour to the point of becoming more and more of a public hazard. His only real wish is to bathe in a public bath.
A Kyoto, è in piena estate che si avvicina il festival O-Bon. Tutti non vedono l'ora che arrivi questo evento annuale, perché lo sappiamo bene, i desideri diventano realtà. La maggior parte di loro desidera ricchezza, bellezza e salute. Tranne Nashi, un senzatetto che inquina l'aria con il suo odore corporeo al punto da diventare sempre più un pericolo pubblico. Il suo unico vero desiderio sarebbe quello di potersi lavare in una vasca da bagno in un bagno pubblico.
