 Teruko, an elderly lady lives alone in the Japanese countryside of Niigata. She becomes delighted when a man comes to visit her house to deliver a golden package. She mistakes him for her childhood friend, but he s a con-man selling fake pills... The ensuing comedy of wit between the two characters plays upon social prejudice and preconceptions about senior citizens. This film was inspired by recent incidents in Japan, where senior citizens living alone were deceived by various types of con-men and scam-artists.
