A Late Dreamer

Ayako spent more than 2 decades in a psychiatric hospital after being diagnosed with schizophrenia in her mid-20's. At the age of 69, she is finally discharged and sets out to begin a new life on her own, living independently. Ayako is full of hope, dreaming of doing things that most people take for granted like cooking for others, making friends, and falling in love. But she needs to tackle various challenges in order to re-enter society.
