Mima Kirigoe has just announced her retirement from the pop trio that built her career to pursue acting. The acting job is grim — a TV detective drama with a graphic rape scene the producers insist will be a turning point. A fan site appears claiming to be Mima's diary, written in first person and dated days she never published. Her old colleagues start dying in ways that read like punishments. The film tracks Mima's grip on the line between her former self, her new self, and the version of her the diary is curating, and what survives when she finally cannot tell which of them just acted.
