The film is made up of two parts: 'side-A' and 'side-B'. Ayaka Miyoshi plays two women with opposite personalities, who visit Ota City in Shimane Prefecture for different purposes and rediscover the charms of traveling as they encounter Ota's nature, people, food and traditional culture. The video was directed by Seita Yamagishi, who has been in charge of the production of many music videos, commercials, films and TV dramas. We had Tadahiro Konoe as the creative director, who has extensive experience in international projects. The film allows viewers to enjoy not only the performance of Ayaka Miyoshi, but also the personalities of the people of Ota City that appear in the film, and the scenes of Ota City with its beautiful soundtrack.
