Synopsis

For philosophy professor Takanashi Yuji (Hasegawa Hiroki), unable to swim and struck with fear, sticking his head under water is easier said than done. But after swimming coach Usuhara Shizuka (Ayase Haruka) ropes him in, he unexpectedly begins taking lessons, awkwardly mixing in with a lively crowd of housewives. Between Shizuka–who says living in water is easier than on land–and Yuji–forever making an uproar–a course of ups and downs kick off as Yuji finally starts to face some hard facts he’s been avoiding with ex-wife Miyako (Aso Kumiko) and girlfriend Namie (Abe Junko).
